I get, respectively: /var/lib/defoma/fontconfig.d/N/NimbusMonL-Bold.pfb /var/lib/defoma/fontconfig.d/B/Bitstream-Vera-Sans-Mono-Bold.ttf These are symlinks to /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/n022004l.pfb /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-bitstream-vera/VeraMoBd.ttf which are supplied by gsfonts and ttf-bitstream-vera. > So I see no problem with VDR using "courier:bold" as default. I, OTOH, see no problem with it using "monospace:bold" as default; allowing it to be set as a compile-time option should be sufficient, though.
