how do I get ghostscript to work ?



I got cups nicely running on my QNX 6.3 server.
allthrought I could not print postscript because of ghostscript
constant errors.

whatever I try to give to /usr/bin/gs I got

# ps2ascii /opt/share/ghostscript/7.04/examples/alphabet.ps

AFPL Ghostscript 7.04: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1

looks like font probleme but I dont know what to install !?

# gs -version
AFPL Ghostscript 7.04 (2002-01-31)

I have tried with espgs-7.07 and ghostscript 8.15 from Qopencd
same error.

note that espgs-7.07 from cups.org website compile out of the box.

did you guys know anything that could help me ?
