Run "xset q" just to make sure your font path is correct. (Also be aware of where you've installed inconsolata.) I find that on RedHat systems, for reasons I don't care to investigate, xfontsel's ability to display a font is not correlated with the same ability in other X software, but for some reason xterm is a good indicator. --Andrew Hills
