Hmmm... changing the fonts for KDE did the trick when it happened to me,
even though I wasn't running KDE back then. Make sure you're using KDE's
font configuration tool and not something provided by your distribution.
If it's a fallback problem, you'll have to correct that with qtconfig
(obvious, isn't it ? LOL). You might also have to restart BNR for
changes to take effect.

If you're running (or have been running) Gnome programs, check your
settings in Gnome too... running GConfd with KDE has some strange
effects on font settings and BNR seems to use Gnome's fonts in that case.

HTH,
