I've had the same problem with SuSE 6.3. The problem
(for me) seems to be that you can't call these fonts
just by their name - they need all the other info
about the font as well.
I've gotten around it by doing the following:
1. In your fonts.dir (where the fonts are installed),
find each line like:
snap.pcf.gz snap
and replace it with something like:
snap.pcf.gz
-misc-snap-bold-r-normal--75-75-12-12-c-0-iso8859-1
(I don't remember exactly what I have, but I just
snagged the description from another font.)
2. You also need to add a line in the fonts.alias file
that includes the above long font description.
3. Also, in the theme file, replace the font name with
the long font description.
Make sure you restart X or do a rehash after making
the changes.
Hth,
