Thanks for the warning about cairo's font rendering.

Could you please send a reference to how to use pangocairo with pycairo?  I think that would be helpful for everyone on this list who might use text in their application.

NEVER EVER use cairo's text rendering capabilities to render any text.
Not in olpc at least.  Use pangocairo ALL THE TIME.

And for families, like others suggested, use "sans-serif", "serif", and
"monospace".
