Yes, this is the reason. The TeX live packages do *not* provide fonts for X of the lmodern fonts. This was due to outdated and incompatible lmodern package (and orphaned) in Debian, so I kept the lmodern fonts from TeX live. We (teTeX and TeX live maintainers) are preparing a new upload of the lmodern fonts, which will bring back full X/defoma support, and the next incarnation of the TeX live packages will depend on the updated lmodern fonts.

Thats good to hear, however do you have any idea why the old defoma config doesn't work for all lm-fonts that are installed? As I already said, some (LMSans, LMRoman, LMTypeWriter) are listed after incorporating the hints-file into defoma in fc-list but the LMSlanted are missing. They are given in the defoma-hint-file and the font-files are at the place mentioned in that file.

Of the file names and the FontName entry in the afm? To be honest, I have no idea what defoma etc does exactely, so I'm only guessing.

The same names, filenames. names and the FontName entry in the afm? And that's what is different, the afm-file which contained LMSlanted in lmodern 0.92 is lmbxo10.afm, which now contains LMRoman10-BoldOblique. There is no file containing LMSlanted in the afm-dir. Bug Roman10-DemiBoldItalic comes really close to what LMSlanted10 was looking like, so I have my proper menus back. Thanks for the hints.
