Hmpf. IS that the error you get? I believe it is "cannot find font fixed:
misc"
As for fixing it...I was never able to - I ended up changing my fonts around
in apps. You could try to load the font placed up for use in the expert
group recently by akar 'th 'orrible:

It is a fixed-width font that MAY fix your problem. Perhaps someone in the
list can offer more specifics on fixing the problem (reording the font
directories, etc).
