Hello.

`dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig` asks whether to enable bitmapped fonts
or not; the effect is this (un)commented line in /etc/fonts/local.conf:
<dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts</dir>

When the above line is not commented out (bitmapped fonts are enabled),
I can choose the "Fixed" font in my GNOME applications. However, a lot
of sites in Galeon (waferbaby.com, theregister.co.uk, etc.) begin to use
not-antialiased, ugly font all over their pages. When I choose not to
use bitmapped fonts (and the above line is commented out) these sites
look ok, but the font-selection dialog lacks the Fixed font.

Is there a way to check which exactly file in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts
is being used as the Fixed font? I believe I could copy that file to my
~/.fonts/ directory, keep the other bitmapped fonts turned off, and have
the best of both worlds...

Cheers,

      It's da bomb. It's phat. It rulez. Everything else sucks. Basically,
         any affirming superlative describes mutt accurately and well.
