surely you also have gsfonts-x11 so that these fonts have actually been made available to X as well ? > ii sharefont 0.10-7 Shareware font selection for X11 > ii xfonts-100dpi 3.3.6-2 100 dpi fonts for X > ii xfonts-75dpi 3.3.6-2 75 dpi fonts for X > ii xfonts-base 3.3.6-2 standard fonts for X > rc xfonts-cjk 3.3.6-1 basic Chinese, Japanese, and Korean fonts fo > ii xfonts-cyrilli 3.3.6-2 Cyrillic fonts for X > ii xfonts-pex 3.3.6-2 fonts for minimal PEX support in X > rc xfonts-scalabl 3.3.6-1 scalable fonts for X If you add xfonts-jmk you get a couple more nice fonts that are good for monospace things. I can't comment further as to how beautiful or not things should be just using the packages, because both my laptop and home workstation also have a batch of extra TTF fonts and ttf font services. But getting those URW fonts (for ghostscript) made available to X is really important, since they are metric equivalents to fonts considered normal in That Other OS. * Heather Stern * star@ many places...
