I have a headless server that doesn't run X (I don't want it to run X), but I do want to run apps remotely on it with ssh X tunneling. I'm trying to run rxvt at the moment but it refuses to start because it can't find any fonts.

I tried installing the font packages but it does seem to help and xfontsel and urxvt don't see the newly installed fonts. How do I get the fonts to be recognized, i.e what is the minimum install that doesn't require an actual X-server to run?

This is for connecting from a windows machine with xming (sorry, not mine) to a debian sid based server (I require some up to date apps and drivers so can't run stable on this one).

Thanks
