Go to SuSE's Portal and there is a HOWTO there written specifically for SuSE
7.1-7.2. I got my 48.8 MBs of fonts installed however, I do not know how to
fix the fixed font. It picks some font. I do not know which font it picks. I
thought there was a file called fonts.alias that tells XFS what fonts to
substitute for another. If so, where is this file and how do I tell it to
use some other font like Courier. Thanks!

Do you actually have any TTF's install onto the machine? In order to use
TTF's you have to have them accessible. They don't come with KDE2
because KDE.org and SuSE are not suppose to redistribute them. You can
however install them to your hearts content. :)

Then rerun SuSEconfig and they should be made available to KDE2.
