[AUCTeX] AucTex for Xemacs doesn't display available fonts...

[Alexander Beck-Ratzka]

Hello list,

I have Xemacs 21.4 on SuSE Linux 9.2 installed, and in Latex-mode (using
auctex emacs-auctex-11.14-69).

in init.el (in directory .xemacs), I have the following definitions:

###########################################cut
here################################
(require 'font-latex)
(set-face-font 'font-latex-bold-face
"-*-lucidatypewriter-bold-*-normal-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-*-*")
(set-face-font 'font-latex-italic-face
"-*-courier-medium-o-normal-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-*-*")
(set-face-font 'font-latex-warning-face
"-*-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-20-*-*-*-*-*-*-*")
###########################################cut
here################################

Even though font -*-lucidatypewriter-bold-*-normal-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-*-* is
available (I get displayed
this font using xfontsel, it is not used as LaTeX bold font in \bf{} or
\textbf{}.

Taking another font, I have no problems.

What might be the reason, where can I look for error messages?
