The Gnome font list appears in the font selection dialog boxes, but after the font is chosen, the default GKrellM font stays. Hard coding a font into a GKrellM theme does not work either. I think something in the Gnome API may have changed and the GKrellM developer has not kept his code in compliance. I know other people with this same problem. I have tested this with every version of GKrellm in portage and with Gnome 2.4 as well as Gnome 2.6.

I am about to log this as a bug with the GKrellM developer(s)
