under Control center->Appearance->Fonts, I see e. g. "Sans Serif". If I click on Select, it is between Penguin Attack and Sazanai... But if I look under Control center->System Control(?)->Font installation, it is not in the list.
Probably it was/is at the top of the list. Other fonts in the otherwise alphabetic list are real font names...
So, where does "Sans Serif" belog to?
...It's a generic name applied to the default font name of that type at the global system configuration level, probably somewhere in /etc/fonts.
