I am connecting to via SSH and activated x-forwarding



[user@client]# ssh -X root@h2795107.stratoserver.net


And open a graphical program (like gedit)



[user@server]# gedit


It opens, however, characters are not displayed properly:

  • Different fonts, different font encodings, Gnome getting confused between local and remote fonts? Does xfontsel work and display fonts properly?

So I found out that there was a font missing on the server. I installed dejavu-lgc-sans-fonts on the remote server.



yum install dejavu-lgc-sans-fonts


After this everything worked fine.
