I can't access a bugzilla.novell bug 198668. That attachment looks like
a screenshot of Firefox displaying a jpeg. I've looked at the Mandriva
source rpm for fontconfig and I don't see anything related to Condensed.
Have they patched Firefox?

If it can be done using fontconfig, how? Surely someone on this list
would be able to say.  I can certainly match it using

:family="Nimbus Sans L":width=75

but how to make it look like a font-family to Firefox?

On my Fedora system, Nimbus Sans L Condensed doesn't show up at all in
KDE.
