Did you install from a package or compile LilyPond yourself? In the former case, make sure that the directory /usr/share/lilypond/1.6.6/fonts/type1/ exists and contains files like feta20.pfa. If you compiled yourself, make sure to read what INSTALL.txt has to say about mftrace, PDF files and pfa

'ly2dvi -P' that you use, will give you a Postscript file with bitmapped fonts. I think you want to use 'ly2dvi -p', which will give you PDF and Postscript files with vector fonts (Type1 fonts). This should be clear from the documentation in the reference manual. Also, in the latest development

Reading old archives and documentation, I'm getting the idea that \property Staff.minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-12 . 12) increases the space BETWEEN the staves. Instead, I see it increase the space on top and bottom of the system. It's a good tweak to know, but it's not what I'm looking for.
