start it with emacs -Q
if it works carry on else report here

start with emacs -q
if it works fix your .emacs else fix your debian site-lisp installation

where 'fix' means looking for a place where the default font is set.
A solution is to grep -R "bitstream" from the root of where you are
looking for it.
