I had a heck of a time having the Terminus (fixed) font recognized by mozilla -- another GTK app. I had done as Liam rightly recommends above and mozilla was ignoring my favorite fixed font. Does gnome/gtk keep stuff in ram across login sessions to initialize more quickly ..? So, unless it's really inconvenient at this point I would just reboot the boxx just in case .. see if it helps. Otherwise, I don't use gnome or any of the apps you mention .. but are they recent versions .. Just thinking that since it's a sarge system you're talking about, some of the apps might be too ancient to be fontconfig-aware..?
