Ubuntu 10.04+ Font Configuration
The setup has change in 10.04+.
First, you still need to install the Arial font.
sudo aptitude install msttcorefonts
Secondly, there are specific mapping files installed for Ubuntu, But I just delete them and deal directly with the fontconfig.properties file.
sudo rm /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/fontconfig.Ubuntu.*
Then replace /etc/java-6-sun/fontconfig.properties with the attached file.
