Correction to my last post: the mentioned commands are REQUIRED to enable
bitmap fonts.
So the problem is not directly resolved in Hardy. There is a WORKAROUND.

the font selector should not allow to pick any font but fixed ones only

You received this bug
This issue does not appear on my Hardy Heron (8.04) Beta. So marking
this issue as resolved makes the list shorter ;-)
You can enable even more non TrueType fonts with:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config
sudo fc-cache -fv
You are now able to select "Terminal","Clean" etc. fonts in the fonts
