Some distributions may use = /usr/local/share/fonts, but I haven't tried that on Intrepid. BTW, if you want Context to find _both_ directories make sure you set = your OSFONTDIR in setuptex like this: export OSFONTDIR=3D"$HOME/.fonts;/usr/share/fonts" You have to use the semicolon instead of a colon, and don't forget the = parentheses (found that in an old post by Khaled Hosny).
