lmodern 2.004.1-3.1ubuntu1 (powerpc binary) in ubuntu precise
The Latin Modern fonts, also known as "lm fonts", are a set of
scalable fonts in PostScript Type 1 and OpenType formats. They are

they are usually considered to be of good quality (compared to
cm-super, for instance; however, cm-super contains font families
that have no equivalent in this package; additionally, there are
character sets that are supported by cm-super and not by the Latin
Modern fonts).
.
The fonts are setup for use with the TeX typesetting system. They
are also registered with defoma, which makes them available to other
applications such as Ghostscript and Fontconfig. Finally, they are
made available to the core X11 fonts system, which makes it possible
to use them in any X application.
