------- Comment #12 from mfabian@xxxxxxxxxx 2007-01-04 12:56 MST -------
The system wide defaults are in /etc/fonts/suse-post-user.conf. The
section for "Sans" starts with:

<alias>
<family>sans-serif</family>
<prefer>
<family>Arial</family>
<family>Albany AMT</family>
<family>Verdana</family>
<family>DejaVu Sans</family>
...

"Arial" and "Verdana" are from the Microsoft Webfonts, i.e. of these
are installed the default will be "Arial". "Albany AMT" is from
the package "agfa-fonts.rpm" which is from the commercial add-on
directory of openSUSE 10.2. I.e. "Albany AMT" will be the default
if you install the commercial add-ons but not the Microsoft Webfonts.
"DejaVu Sans" is in dejavu.rpm and will be the default font for "Sans"
if you don't install any commercial add-ons.


To specify your own defaults, add rules as follows to the
file ~/.fonts.conf in your home directory:

<alias>
<family>sans-serif</family>
<prefer>
<family>FreeSans</family>
</prefer>
</alias>
<alias>
<family>serif</family>
<prefer>
<family>FreeSerif</family>
</prefer>
</alias>

<alias>
<family>monospace</family>
<prefer>
<family>FreeMono</family>
</prefer>
</alias>


Instead of "FreeSans", "FreeSerif", "FreeMono", use the names of your favorite
fonts
as listed by

fc-list : family
