Probably my font is newer (from
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/freefont/freefont-ttf-20120503.zip).
I think there is no file clash, since ConTeXt standalone doesn't provide
the font

Well, I know that the font has kern as OpenType feature, but I need it
to have the TrueType kern table (not the OpenType feature).
At least on my ConTeXt installation, OpenType features aren't enabled by
default.
I used ConTeXt to check the font wrong kerns that my ereader (Sony
PRS-T1) showed with this font.
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo
