idesk fonts problem



hi,

Yesterday is wtiched to SID completely, was running a mix of testing and
SID before, and installed idesk.
Followed the manual...and the examples that come with the package but
whatever i do i get the message : 'Can't find font: tahoma'.
I've also added a few truetype fonts, including tahoma, from 
windows(sorry Bill...sue me:)
And within X i can pick these fonts, in mozzila for example, and
they all seem to work/display fine. When i run xfontsel all the fonts
seem to be there and selectable aswell.
I've edited the ~/.ideskrc file pointing it to other fonts...arial...etc..etc..tried
dozens of fonts but i keep getting the 'Can't find font: <fontname>' error.
Anyone know the cause/solution?

Cheers,
Willem
