I had this problem for a long time. Then one day I got really upset and =20 figured out which font fontconfig chooses instead of my beloved fixed font.= As =20 it turns out it was 12x13ja.pcf. (The ugly font in the bottom) So I manuall= y =20 removed it from my system. Here how it goes: cd /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc rm 12x13ja.pcf.gz update-fonts-dir misc fc-cache And voila now there is no problem choosing fixed font in gnome. It is not n= ice =20 solution, I have to do it everytime X window system is updated (or only =20 fonts), yet not one of the solutions provided on this list (there were some= ) =20 provided me with the same results. In my case I did not manage to force =20 fontconfig to choose font: 7x13 or 7x13 -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-70-iso8859-13 Mpiktas Mpiktas --IJpNTDwzlM2Ie8A6 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQA/sIppQEgPBA2G0T8RAjhBAKCb2sAgvmAMfsRMbWWa3GGNyUg4/ACfQPys W+6XOclY0Pl+P6u972wWL5M= =hLaG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --IJpNTDwzlM2Ie8A6--
