Hi Ciro,
I completely agree. Context works fine but, like you, I have not
succeeded in installing any new font thusfar.
A few months ago I tried again with a very simple font, which I got
working under Latex, but not under Context, despite all my attempts and
suggestions from other subscribers:

for those who don't know supp-vis but know what glue and penalties

try \showmakeup and you get an idea where penalties, glue etc. are
