Full output from fontconfig 'FC_DEBUG=1 konsole'
*** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. *** There is a workaround to get the standard "fixed" font working in the current konsole: http://ptspts.blogspot.com/2010/06/how-to-enable-bitmap-fonts-on-ubuntu.html I have been using this on Kubuntu 11.04 and 11.10 (4.6.? and 4.7.2?) Copying the relevant bits from that blog. Download and install this variant of Fixed that has the "semicondensed" tag removed: http://pts-mini-gpl.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/fonts/fixedsc.tgz Then enable bitmap fonts by removing the no-bitmaps.conf file and linking the force-bitmaps or yes-bitmaps config: $ sudo rm -f /etc/fonts/conf.d/70-{yes,no,force}-bitmaps.conf $ if test -f /etc/fonts/conf.avail/70-force-bitmaps.conf then sudo ln -s {../conf.avail,/etc/fonts/conf.d}/70-force-bitmaps.conf else sudo ln -s {../conf.avail,/etc/fonts/conf.d}/70-yes-bitmaps.conf fi Then rebuild fontconfig: (not required for me so have not tested this) $ sudo rm -f /var/cache/fontconfig/* $ rm -rf "$HOME/.fontconfig" $ sudo fc-cache $ fc-cache $ fc-list | grep -E 'FixedSC' | sort FixedSC:style=Bold FixedSC:style=Regular Restart konsole and there should be a Fixed SC available to choose. (size 10 is what you want) |
