apt-get install gsfonts-x11 xfonts-scalable freefont
it looks like all three of these packages install their fonts
into /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/{Type1,Speedo} which is what the
config settings seem to expect.
///
apt-get install gsfonts
this one puts them in /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/ instead.
similar to what you indicate above. but i figure it should be
easy enough to get the others working, so i'll put this off for a
while.

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #69 from Will Trillich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
:
Preparing to UPGRADE POSTGRESQL? If you have a second machine on
your network that you can tinker with, do your upgrade there,
first: once tested, you can just have your current applications
link to the remote database through the network:
psql -h 192.168.2.17 myDB
or in perl,
$dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:Pg:dbname=myDB;host=192.168.2.17');
(You may need to tweak your 'host-based access' settings in
/etc/postgresql/pg_hba.conf, first.) Once you're satisfied that
all is well, upgrade your main server. No down time!
See "man psql" and "man DBD::Pg" for details.
