Please help with font problem



Hello,

We are working on two servers here: one is an old SuSE 8.2, the other was 
just migrated to debian testing (by me).

The debian machine works wonderfull, exept for one thing:

One program makes heavy use of "spectial" characters, such as the big 
greek "Delta" or Chinese and Kanji characters. This works with the old 
SuSE, but not (yt) on Debian. Unfortunatly I have nearly no clue, how all 
the X11 fonts are handled and didn't manage to display these characters.

Can you please help me with this ? I attach the information that I think 
you might want to know. Please tell me, if something is missing.

>From /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
