- install TeXLive in /opt/TeXlive/; don't let the installer
create symbolic links for the binaries and don't install
the ConTeXT from TEXLive
- install ConTeXT in /opt/ConTeXT/texmf/ (don't forget to
build a ls-R database there)
- create a directory /opt/ConTeXt/bin, go there and run
for PL in `ls ../texmf/context/perltk/*.pl`; do ln -s $PL `basename $PL .pl`; done
- go to /opt/ConTeXt/texmf/context/perltk/ and check whether
the *.pl files have mode 755 (rwxr-xr-x); if not run
chmod 755 *.pl
- find texmf.cnf in /opt/TeXLive (usually at
/opt/TeXLive/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf) make a copy (texmf.cnf.ori)
and edit the texmf.cnf:
(a) add: TEXMFCONTEXT=/opt/ConTeXt/texmf
(b) change
TEXMF={$HOMETEXMF,!!$VARTEXMF,$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFMAIN}
to
TEXMF={$HOMETEXMF,$TEXMFCONTEXT,!!$VARTEXMF,$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFMAIN}
- create a file /etc/profile.d/texlive.sh with following content
PATH=/opt/ConTeXt/bin:/opt/TeXLive/bin/i386-linux:$PATH
TEXMFCNF="/opt/TeXLive/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf"
export TEXMFCNF
- re-login or refresh your profile (source /etc/profile in bash or bash --login),
so that profile changes take effect. done. No need
to uninstall the distro's teTeX. It will simply not used anymore.

Hmm, it's working here. Maybe Hans knows...
You can try \setupencoding[default=ec], but i believe
the \s! has a meaning there so NO WARRANTY :)
But easier, change
\usetypescript [berry] [\defaultencoding]
to
\usetypescript [berry] [ec]

utmr8r is not a PostScript Type1 font, it's a TeX font.
So, look for utmr8r.tfm (raw TeX font) or for utmr8t.tfm
(T1 aka ec encoded TeX font).
