If tsafrir is right, the solution
to the two problems might be the same.

What do you think?

I believe that the default font that is used by netscape is set by the
window manager. I think that there are several fonts - one for the title,
one for buttons text, textboxes, etc. that you can not set through
netscape's fonts preferences. Note - It is possible that you can set those
fonts using some other method (X resources come to mind), but I hav't
tried digging there.

I currently use WindowMaker for a window manager. Fonts can be easily set
using wmakerconf.
I believe that the same applies for kwm (kde's window manager) and
enlightenment, both of which come iwth easy to use configuration tools.

Note: I have not tried invastegationg too much. I only played with those
things until I had it working...

good luck
