My system is SuSE 9.2:

,----
| /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts$ ls */fonts.alias
| misc/fonts.alias  75dpi/fonts.alias  100dpi/fonts.alias
| /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts$ grep courier */fonts.alias
| /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts$ grep helvetica */fonts.alias
| misc/fonts.alias:variable     
-*-helvetica-bold-r-normal-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
`----

I don't see anything wrong here.  Could you be more specific, please?

Bye, Reiner.
