Hi Luigi

I don't know if this helps, but we have to have our render nodes logged in
to use any local custom system fonts as well. If we don't we get a font
error in shake and the frame fails to complete. We didn't find any way
around this.

	Interesting.. I wonder what shake needs the machine to be logged in for
	just to access fonts.

	I don't suppose anyone's talked to shake support about this.. I think
	we could all benefit from what they say.

	I would think you can replicate this problem easily from the command line
	by just ssh'ing into the machine, and invoking the shake command manually,
	and if so, definitely report it to shake support to see what they say.
	(I think some guy was taking over shake support.. can't recall the details)
