[Xastir] Hardy VMware Font problem

[Lee Bengston]

Thanks for posting that, Tony.  I was never able to find the correct
file in Xubuntu where that could be changed permanently.  The problem
hasn't been there for me in Ubuntu 9.04, however.  The next time I
remaster an Xubuntu CD, I'll try to remember to change that file
assuming the issue it still there in Xubuntu 9.10.
