(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: konsole Version: 1.0.2 (using KDE 2.2.2 ) Severity: normal Installed from: SuSE Compiler: gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (SuSE) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.16-4GB OS/Compiler notes: The web page at: http://home.earthlink.net/~us5zahns/enl/ansifont.html lists some VGA fonts that are used for "custom" Bash prompts. I downloaded the standard "vga" font followed the instructions listed at the site and was able to get a nice looking VGA font going very quickly... but only in xterm and gnome-terminal. Konsole displays the text: #konsole --font vga QFont::setRawMode(): Invalid XLFD: "vga" and defaults back to fixed. If you want my .dircolors and .bashrc just let me know.. hopefully this is an easy fix. Thanks Steven (Submitted via bugs.kde.org) (Called from KBugReport dialog)
"--font" parameter is not respected by Konsole. Does it work if you select the font with "Settings/Font/Custom..."?

I have checked this dialog with anti-aliased fonts turned on and off. Thanks for any help Steven
I tried to install the font labelled "Kates" with the current development version of KDE/Konsole and succeeded. Note: This is no straight HOWTO :-) > QFont::setRawMode(): Invalid XLFD: "vga" Installed/ran xmbdfed File/Import/Server Font selected "Kates" Edit/Font Name/Make XLFD Name replaced "Kates" description in fonts.dir with result string. After KDE start it's selectable in Settings/Font/Custom as "Nexus". Obviously there must be a way to save XLFD into pcf file. Didn't search it.
