I removed = all the fonts of my sistem except dejavu fonts, but kde4 still request Sans= Serif, so I don't know how to change the default font and avoid this b= ehaviour when I run a progrem from konsole.

Hi Percy,

> Firts, what is the default font to kde4?

That = will depend on your distribution.  "Serif" and "Sa= ns Serif" are
not actual fonts, but they are 'requests' for= a certain type of font
(with and without serifs respectively)  When you ask for &quo= t;Sans Serif"
you will get a font that matches this criteria. = On Kubuntu for
example asking for "Sans Serif" will give= you "Deja Vu Sans".  You can
find out what a particular name maps to by running "fc-match '= font
name'" in a terminal.

See:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serif
It is not an ideal situation.  I have seen at least a couple= of
reviews with negative comments about fonts.  Looking at thescreenshots shows something very different from what I see, even
thoug= h presumably both of us are using the KDE defaults.

Regards,
Robe= rt.
