I just installed a minimal Freebsd 6.0 (base + manpages only)
and then compiled tightvnc and xmbmon (WITHOUT_SMB=YES).

When starting xmbmon in a vnc-client, it refuses to work:

===snip===
Can't find font: -adobe-helvetica-bold-r-*-*-10-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

>How-To-Repeat:
Just start xmbmon...
>Fix:
Patch for xmbmon.c :
