It appears to me that the font that I want is actually installed. When I do xterm -fn 10x20, I get the font. (xterm is from where I became aware of this font in the first place.) However, in sylpheed, I do not know how to call this font. I have previously used Fixed 16 to refer to this font but it does not seem to work (it gives some other font). Is this a gtk update/packaging issue?
