So.... I'm still running a KDE 3.5 system on Gentoo, using Konsole 1.6.6 for KDE 3.5.10, and trying to use some new TTF fonts I installed in Konsole.
I've always been mystified about how fonts work in Linux, but I've learned by googling that you can install TTFs by just putting the font files in a directory ~/.fonts. When I do that, the fonts are recognized by OpenOffice (e.g.). But when I open the Select Font dialog for Konsole, they don't appear. In fact many of the fonts that appear in OOo are not included. Does anyone know the reason why? Does it have something to do with Konsole (at least the old version I'm using) not being capable of using TTF fonts at all? Thanks.
