You will need to reconfigure the fontconfig-config package and be sure to enable bitmapped fonts. If you've upgraded your box over time as Sid, there may be some crufty files in /etc/fonts/conf.d (they should all be symlinks now except for README) that are turning bitmapped fonts back off even though you've enabled them. I found this on a few of my boxes. A clean Etch or later install should not have this problem.
Hi Nate,I have done the dpkg-reconfigure on fontconfig-config and fcontconfig (learned this a while back when apt removed my font). I also discovered that I had to have font aliasing enabled. It was set to "system settings" which I assume was off. I set that to enabled, and tried again - no go. After some more fiddling about, I discovered there was another konsole process running, preventing it from actually restarting cleanly. Killed that off, started konsole again, and the font is there - much better!
Thanks! --kj
