TrueType fonts and X
Hi!
I know it's boring, but I do have one another question / problem with
fonts, specially truetype fonts. I've seen some recent threads about
fonts, I've read this (http://egads.ertius.org/~rob/font_guide.txt) howto,
but it does not help ;(.
Long story short: truetype fonts does not seem to work with X and gtk1.
They works fine under KDE3, gtk2, OpenOffice, ... . I do have
x-ttcidfont-conf and defoma installed and correct paths set as suggested by
Rob's font_guide. I also have msttcorefonts, but xfontsel does not show
foundry microsoft and those fonts are not available to gtk1 apps
(gtkfontsel, switch). However when this Sid box was installed about 6
months ago, tt fonts were working out-of-box. On one another box I've
installed at about the same time, tt fonts works fine, so I guess screwed
my config somehow, but I really have no idea how. Any suggestions and
hints are appreciated.
Thanks a lot in advance.

PS: Please, CC your replies also to my private mail, thanks.
PPS: The other box has also some font problems under KDE. I've described
them at my post to debian-kde:

Sadly, no-one was able to give any advice ;(. If you can, don't be ashamed
to do so ;)).
