If you’ve just installed KDE 3.5.8 from ports or packages on FreeBSD, don’t forget to do this. Why am I putting this here? Because I always forget to do this!
NetBSD users will probably want to access /etc/X11/XF86Config instead.
Package kdebase-3.5.8 registered in
/var/db/pkg/kdebase-3.5.8This port has installed fonts into
/usr/local/share/apps/konsole/fontsYou may want to add
/usr/local/share/apps/konsole/fontsto your X font path by either:
% xset fp+ /usr/local/share/apps/konsole/fonts
% xset fp rehashor by adding it to your X-server configuration file (usually
/etc/X11/xorg.confor/usr/local/lib/X11/xorg.conf) and restarting the X-server.You also have to make the new path known to
fontconfigby adding a<dir>/usr/local/share/apps/konsole/fonts</dir>line to either/usr/local/etc/fonts/local.confor~/.fonts.confand runningfc-cache -f(as root if you editedlocal.conf) afterwards.
I do have KDE 4.0 mostly running on an experimental system, but for the time being I’m sticking to 3.5.8 on production machines.

I have come accross this same problem & found your site hoping it would give me the answer.
Could you explain to me what it means to add
” /usr/local/share/apps/konsole/fonts line to either /usr/local/etc/fonts/local.conf or ~/.fonts.conf
I am trying to workout what the ” ” at the beginning & end mean & if I am supposed to add something etc…
Could you please help , Still learning the basics
Thanks Jason
