OK, I've figured out that I do have both dejavu and bitstream vera
fonts installed (but they weren't on the font path). Now "DejaVu
Sans" does work. The problem is that emacs wants a font with a family
name of "Sans Serif", and none of the installed fonts provide a family
with that name.
I changed "Sans Serif" to "DejaVu Sans" in /usr/share/emacs/23.1/lisp/faces.el,
but emacs is till asking for a font with a family name of "Sans Serif".
