X11 fonts issues

*** Since we have upgrade to commercial version of Nomachine NX, installing x11 fonts is no longer needed. But the information could still be useful if we run our Nomachine backup server with Free NX.

If you are receiving 'Font init failed' or there is certain fonts on the screen that you don't see when running EPICS (EDM) or LCLS home screen, you will need to install the appropriate font package for the OS that you are running: 

Windows: https://www.nomachine.com/download/download&id=16 

MAC: http://xquartz.macosforge.org/landing/

If you are not able to resume a NX Connection and you typically connect from multiple computers, be sure to use similar version of NoMachine client where you initiate the connection and where you want to reconnect.If you are using version 4.4.x in your office, you need to use the same version to resume a connection that was in standby. You can get the version of it with SCP it from pslogin.slac.stanford.edu in this path: /reg/common/tools/admin/nomachine/nomachine_4.5from. To check for Nomachine version, after you have launch Nomachine client, go to Preferences on top, then click on Updates, it will show you the version that you are running Nomachine on.

Other issues

If Ctrl-C (Ctrl-break) does not work on the Linux client, hit the Alt-Ctrl-C (Use it in proper sequence so hold down the key one at a time). WindowsKey-Ctrl-C, or turn on Caps Lock and hit Ctrl-C will also work.
