I run Opera 9.20 (static) on Etch, and I don't see your problem.
But who knows? Fonts are hell -- there's always something that breaks.

Ah, thanks for the info. After re-testing, it now works. I ran Opera
9.20 20070407. I 've just downloaded 9.20-20070409, in which Helvetica
15 is readable (looks like Helvetica 16 bold, but readable).

The culprit was in $HOME/.qt/qtrc. Mine contains kde3 plugins and used
to prefer the "Default" style over the "Platinum" style. That caused
some bitmap corruption in the "minimize/restore/close" buttons, and
prevented the styling of the menu bar, as shown in
http://yo.dan.free.fr/tmp/pb_qt_style.png (I can recognize wmaker's red
titlebar).

Can someone confirm this (run qt-config, select a KDE style, and
restart opera)? Looks more an opera issue than a KDE issue to me...
(just guessing)
