On my Debian sid system, the following fonts from /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc 12x13ja.pcf.gz 7x14-JISX0201.1976-0.pcf.gz 8x13-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz 7x13-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz 7x14.pcf.gz 8x13.pcf.gz 7x13.pcf.gz 7x14B-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz 7x14-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz 7x14B.pcf.gz from the xfonts-base package are getting in the way of my preferred font, 6x13*. For example when I have 'Fixed 10' selected in gnome-terminal, any of the above fonts will be used over 6x13 (where the above fonts also follow some sort of pecking order). If I move them out of the way, 'Fixed 10' is 6x13. Is there any way to tell fontconfig to prefer 6x13 without moving or copying fonts to preferred/deferred directories? Why is fontconfig favoring the above fonts? Thanks, Ryan
