Some random ideas: - the xfonts-ideas-japanese seem to be bitmapped fonts. These won't be available to Konqueror (or any other app using fontconfig, as any KDE3 or Gnome2 apps) unless font config is configured to offer bitmap fonts to apps [dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig]. - even if fontconfig offers them, I *think* you must tell konqueror to use them. I mean, IIRC Pango uses other fonts than the configured fonts when the second lack some needed characters; it goes and figures which other fonts can provide them, I figure. OTOH, I think I've heard QT isn't capable of this. I am pretty sure wrt to the first point, but take the second one with caution. It'd be nice if someone could confirm or deny it with more first-hand knowledge.
