a) The fonts will only show in applications that have been started after you've installed them. b) If you're not using xfs (I'm not because of a conflict with Xinerama), then you'll need to add the FontPath to your XF86Config file. c) gnome terminal doesn't appear to display the fonts for me either. I think this is a limitation/bug in gnome-terminal. If you look in the gnome bugzilla there is a couple of bug reports complaining about not being able to access all the fonts installed on the system. Some people say it's only allowing monospaced fonts, but that doesn't appear to hold true here. -- Ben Reser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://ben.reser.org "If you're not making any mistakes, you're flat out not trying hard enough." - Jim Nichols
