[R] Font problem

Some plots fail due to a problem with the X11 fonts. I get a message that
"X11 font at size 22 could not be loaded." The demo() graphics routine for
instance dies during the third chart. The graphics demo calls "font.main=1"
and that seems to be where the error is. I believe this is due to a
configuration problem on my system, however I can't find where in the
environment font.main looks for the font to use.
I am running SuSE 9.0 and use the KDE desktop. However, I have also
replicated this in GNOME and WindowMaker. Varying the fonts used by the
console does notb effect the result.
Thanks,
John Dougherty
