        Situation with fonts on X is quite fluid at the moment.

        You should have better chance looking for âfont serverâ and
âclient-side fontsâ.

        Basically, until around the time of Debian 3 the preferred
method was the use of a font server: you configured one font server in
the network serving every font under the sun to whatever X servers.
Each X serverâs /etc/X11/XF86Config would point to the font server.

        But around the time of Debian 3 too started the migration to
client-side fonts: the client â that is, the program requesting the
windows to the X server, program which paradoxically runs in the host
while the X server runs in the terminal â has the fonts.

        If you upgrade to Debian testing you should get client-side
fonts quite automagically.
