I installed the slack 9.1 packages off of kde.org and now konsole is complaining about this:

"Font `-misc-console-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-c-80-iso10646-1' not found.
Check README.linux.console for help."


I'm not exactly sure what this is. I've checked out my XF86 font directories, and even followed a suggestion I found through usenet to copy the *.gz files from /opt/kde/share/fonts to the misc font directory, but that doesn't seem to work.

Anyone got any bright ideas?

The file name for this font is:


console8x16.pcf.gz

It will be installed in: $KDEDIR/share/fonts

If KDE is not installed with a perfix of: "/usr", then you must add this directory to: /etc/fonts/local.conf. Add this as the next to last line of the file just before: </fontconfig>:

<dir>$KDEDIR/share/fonts</dir>

OR, you can move the files:

	9x15.pcf.gz
	console8x16.pcf.gz
	console8x8.pcf.gz

to: /usr/share/fonts/ and then make a link:

$KDEDIR/share/fonts -> /usr/share/fonts

and after you do one or the other (NOT both) execute as root:

fc-cache -vf

You might have to restart KDE before it will find the font.
