The fonts are still available under the terms of Microsofts original
license here http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/ and as far as i know the
installer package is still in debian which should help you to install them.
Anyhow the original problem sounds very much like what happened to me
with enlightenment when i got the order of the 75dpi and 100dpi fonts
the wrong way around in my X config. Also make sure you do have all of
the X fonts installed as I have forgotten them before.
Thanks
Adam
