Also, you didn't install any separate dvips/xdvi packages, did you? TeTeX comes with its own tweaked versions of these so you don't need to install them separately. TeTeX has always worked out of the box for me. The only thing I can think of is that you did something strange in the setup program (texconfig?) and MakeTeXPK is writing the fonts to someplace that the other programs don't know about. I'm pretty sure that my setup puts generated fonts somewhere under the teTeX directory rather than /tmp. Sorry I can't be any more precise than that!
