I did not use xfs, was that the problem? Mozilla and xchat support Vera nevertheless. Now i run xfs Dillo and xlsfonts do find Vera, too.
Sounds like the "FontPath" settings in your XF86Config file do not match the "catalogue" settings in your xfs config (<X11etcdir>/fs/config). xfs is simply a decent cache, which can provide fonts over the network (only need to install on one machine, etc etc). Update your server config to use more font paths. You can augment the list at run time with "xset fp+ /path/to/more/fonts" if you don't want to touch XF86Config. One thing is to make sure that you run "xset fp rehash" after adding new fonts and running "mkfontdir", since X doesn't automatically see new fonts. I should have said that before, but only gave "xfstt --sync". Sorry. So it could simply be fixed by having restarted X, since that effectively did a rehash. ;^) -Phil
