Other suggestions most appreciated! > ok! another try. monospace is only an alias for other Fonts. i guess that fontconfig didn't find any of this fonts: (excerpt from /usr/X11R6/etc/fonts/fonts.conf) <alias> <family>monospace</family> <prefer> <family>Andale Mono</family> <family>Courier New</family> <family>Luxi Mono</family> <family>Nimbus Mono L</family> <family>Kochi Gothic</family> <family>AR PL KaitiM GB</family> <family>Baekmuk Dotum</family> </prefer> </alias> maybe you should also uncomment all font types: Load "type1" Load "freetype" Load "bitmap" Load "speedo" if nothing else helps, the easiest way is installing the bitstream-vera fonts. this port will also install a own local.conf an set monotype to "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono".
