I am embarrased to admit I spend way too much time at the console so it is these stupid X windows problems that really trip me up.
I need to add a font and noticed that my gnome menu is acutally missing a tool for managing fonts. On my system in particular, it seems that fonts are stored wherever different developers seemed fit for them to store them at the time. I have found multitudes of paths that contain TTF files, some of these fonts seeming to be very similar, if not redundant. I have a TTF file for a very obscure unicode font that I must have installed. I did find one very old document from the Sarge/Woody days regarding how to install TTF support, but I am concerned the document may be no longer relevant. It is likely that the ways fonts are handled in Debian, or linux in general, have changed since then. http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-mini/TT-Debian.html Would it suffice to just copy the TTF file into any directory that already has a TTF file stored in it (there's about 20 of them on my machine) or are there additional steps that need to be taken?
