Hmm .. my Konsole fonts look fine (really nice in fact) - I only use the "Linux" font though. One weird thing is that if I start a Konsole "Linux console" session, then I always get this error : Font '-misc-console-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-c-160-iso10646-1' not found. Check README.linux.console for help (this README file doesn't exist on my system). I just avoid this problem by always using a Konsole "Shell" session type instead (which doesn't produce the error). I don't have the xfonts-konsole package installed, so maybe that's the cause of this error.
