I hope this is the right place to post my question (as opposed to a
Linux specific group) but here goes: I can't convince Emacs (22.0.50
from CVS) to change to a font I really like, "console", which other
applications, in particular Konsole, seem to have no trouble rendering.
Here's a screenshot of the situation:

Notice how the font in the 'xfontsel' application and the Konsole
window - the one I'm trying to get Emacs to use - is still different
from what Emacs is displaying after executing the (set-default-font
"-*-console-*-*-*-*-17-*-*-*-*-*-*-*") command shown in the scratch
buffer. The 'console' font does not show up in the pop-up menu when
when I shift-left-click in Emacs. I've tried lots of combinations in
place of the wildcards in the font selection string, with no real luck.
Any tips?
Thanks
