 Hi list
 
 A few months back I switched to Debian (due to hardware problems) and came
 back a few weeks ago. But ever since I came back, my terminus font in
 KDE’s Konsole looks different and I don’t know why. It seems I have
 installed a different variant (it has more space between letters and the
 glyphs have more elaborate shapes).
 
 Please see the attached screenshot. On the left is the font as it looks
 right now in Konsole, and on the right is how it looked both on Debian and
 on my old Gentoo system (it’s actually the same shape as the console font
 which is used on the TTYs). Both screenshots show the same font size (7pt
 at ~120 dpi).
 
 Any idea how I can get the old shape back? I already tried different
 combinations of useflags for terminus-font, but to no avail.

Actually I had the same problem and it was caused by an incompatibility 
between newer qt version with different font handling and konsole 4.4.x. 
Unfortunately I cannot remember what I did to solve it in the end, but I 
have my terminus font back in konsole. So there is hope ;-)

What fonts do you have selected? Look at 
eselect fontconfig list

I’m running KDE 4.5 on Qt 4.6 right now. The I want this was taken on 
Debian’s 4.4. Perhaps I’ll have a try with 4.6 some day after christmas…

I’m not sure what to look for. A grep for ter didn’t bring anything up.
