I've been digging all over about how to load more fonts into the X font server, and have found some quick and painless techniques for installing your own fonts. First put them in a directory, and run mkfontscale if you have any ttf's then mkfontdir. Then you simply put xset +fp /path/to/fontdir/ in .xsession or something like it. This works great except one problem, which is what I'm seeking help on. The fonts contained in said directory show up in xfontsel and in a few apps (gimp and ooffice are the only two I've found them in, and ooffice only on school computers and not at work) but I have found no way to get at the fonts in other apps, most desirably gaim, mozilla, and gvim. Does anyone know what might be the problem here, or how to get around this nuisance? Any ideas would be appreciated. -- Von Fugal
