Help with cm-super (etch), plain tex



Hey guys, I am an etch user of Plain Tex, just installed cm-super, cm-super and cm-super-x11. I keep getting not found, I don't know what I am doing wrong.
"dpkg -S cm-super" yields lines such as
cm-super: /usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/public/cm-super/sfrb1000.pfb
So, I create a trial.tex file with lines

===============
\font\pito=sfrb1000
\pito
¿¡Qué caña no coño, güeno!?\end
===============

whose only purpose is to try the fonts. But I don't get anything when texing it, except

=====================================
This is METAFONT, Version 2.71828 (Web2C 7.5.4)

I've tried installing, reinstalling every tetex-extra that I have seen, done texhash, but can't fix it. Please help. Thanks,
