#1 Details of default font
as ubuntu uses utf8, the font defaults for gtk1.2 come from /etc/gtk/gtkrc.utf-8
style "default-text" { fontset = "-*-arial-medium-r-normal--*-120-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1,\ -*-helvetica-medium-r-normal--*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*" }
arial is not installed by default, so gtk reverts to the helvetica font. plugging in the same attributs into xfontsel we get (see attached image)
