I found a bit of instructions on adding your MS fonts to RedHat.  If you 
have a Winders 98 or 2000 CD handy.  Haven't tried it yet, too busy. 
Try to go to the corefonts URL on sourceforge and see if that works for 
you.  http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/

Q) I thought it comes with Microsoft TrueType Core
Fonts but I don't see it
A) To comply with Microsoft EULA (End User License
Agreement), a "binary" format of rpm for Microsoft
TrueType Core Fonts is not included. Instead I've
decided to use a very clever method from

http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/
with a script which will download source, build binary rpm and install 
it on the fly. To install MS Fonts, simply type
"install-msfonts" in the terminal (assuming you have
network setup properly). This script is only included
in Release 3.0rc2 (2003-03-22).
