Ugly, ugly fonts in X apps after upgrade to FC2 [Was: Re: core 2 test 2 : fonts ]

[Vladimir G. Ivanovic]

I have the same problem on the released version of FC2. Xterm and
especially XEmacs have leading and size problems, and are especially thin.

I searched for "font" and "fonts" and didn't find anything on either the
fedora-devel or fedora-test lists. I also checked the unofficial FC FAQ.
Nothing.

Can someone suggest a solution, or failing that, a place I can search
for a solution?

Thanks.
