Not sure.  When I specify an incorrect font name, I usually get Sans
Serif instead.

Can you try the following expression?  (After having started any
application to make sure the gtkairo port has been initialized.)

(clim-gtkairo::with-pango-context (context nil)
  (mapcar #'clim-gtkairo::pango_font_family_get_name
          (clim-gtkairo::pango-context-list-families context)))

The result should be a list of font family names.  We are looking for
"Courier New", "Serif", and "Sans".  If you don't have these exact
fonts, but alternatives exist, you could try to change the plist
clim-gtkairo:*default-font-families*.  For example, "Bitstream Vera Sans
Mono" works instead of "Courier New" for :FIX.


Thanks,
