I must say that I don't have speed/stability problems on my Sid machine with the Bitstream Cyberbit font (http://www.ccss.de/slovo/unifonts.htm) which is also quite large (13MB).

I just wish I could make GNOME display the wide fonts correctly in the GUI elements... marek -- Visit: http://caudium.net - the Caudium WebServer /* A completely unrelated fortune */ They spell it "da Vinci" and pronounce it "da Vinchy".
