Hi again,

Sorry for the delay, I was taken with real life worries for a bit.

So, I realized I did have some leftovers from an earlier installation attempt. I cleaned everything and reinstalled TeXLive from the CD, from scratch. I will wait a bit before updating ConTeXt again, because right now I just want to access my system fonts (I'm on Linux) with XeTeX and I can't seem to manage to do that anymore. Everything else works. Now I just can't remember what I did back on Ubuntu Edgy/Feisty. When I run:

fc-list

I do see my fonts listed (after a fc-cache -f). What do I need more?

I guess you have to setup OSFONTDIR (in texmf.cnf). Best wishes, Taco
