AW: 9.0 refusing to run on Ubuntu

Dear Gregory,

did you check whether the respective Ubuntu installation has the X.Org fonts installed? VisualWorks requires these.

Currently I have the following combinations working without a problem:

  *   Ubuntu Mate 19.10: VisualWorks 8.3, 8.3.2 and 9.1
  *   Ubuntu Mate 21.04: VisualWorks 9.1.1 and 9.2

Thus, I don’t know about your specific combo Ubuntu 18.04/VisualWorks 9.0 but don’t expect issues there. Or, you update both your OS and VisualWorks 😉

HTH

Has anyone encountered this type of error when trying to run VW 9.0 on Ubuntu?   I have tried several images which run well on other workstations than the one displaying the problem;  those other workstations have different Debian distributions, though.
