Hello Support, My name is Brian Brong and I'm a graduate student at the University of Nevada @ Reno. We've installed N-AWIPS/GEMPAK 5.4 on a Silicon Graphics Machine with IRIX 6.5. We have no problems starting GARP, our problems occur when we try to display data (surface obs., gridded data, etc.) GARP crashes and we get the following error message. fire:~ 29 > graphic, satellite, radar -- 33 128 16 Invoke ... /opt/nawips-5.4/bin/irix/garp G A R P - v2.01 starting... X Error of failed request: BadName (named color or font does not exist) Major opcode of failed request: 45 (X_OpenFont) Serial number of failed request: 4671 Current serial number in output stream: 4673 Do you have any ideas as to how this error is occurring? Thanks for the help Brian
