Ok, I took my own suggestion and attempted importing the windows fonts. After some trial and error, I was able to import the fonts (and after reading your message Derek, I discovered I do not have perlftlib installed???) but now I have a /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/drakfont/tmp directory which appears to hold the exact same contents of /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/drakfont - my question is does anybody else have this?
Can I delete that directory without any problems? I was thinking that maybe during my attempts to import the fonts, somehow I imported twice, and the excess /tmp directory just contains a previous - but apparently successful import. Now the only problem is how to get those fonts into Galeon, or sylpheed. They show up in preferences for gedit, not galeon or sylpheed. What...do I have to reboot or restart x in order for them to show up?
