There is no file lm-ec.enc in my installation Hmmm ... how old is your ConTeXt then? You should install the new verision of Latin Modern, but recent version of ConTeXt doesn't work with the old version of Latin Modern. > but > ec-var-lm.enc.

It's just as bad as ec.enc (they're just synonyms - both are old and kind-of-obsolete, but nobody wants to modernise them; they say that you have to write your own for the usage with recent fonts). You can try if you'll have more luck with this one (should be more or less equivalent with ec-lm.enc if you would have the latest version of LM installed): http://www.tug.org/fontname/tex256.enc ec.enc would give you way too many missing glyphs anyway.
