wrong font in ubuntu gutsy

User-agent: Gnus/5.11 (Gnus v5.11) Emacs/22.1 (gnu/linux)

I don't know if this is an emacs question or an X/GTK question.

If I run:

 GNU Emacs 22.1.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.0)
 of 2007-11-06 on terranova, modified by Ubuntu 

and select the font 10x20 from the popup menu, I get what looks like a
Sony fixed width font.

LANG=en_US.UTF-8

In /usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/fonts.alias I see:

10x20        -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso8859-1

If I specify the -misc-fixed font I get the font I expect.

Do you know what the problem might be and how I can fix it?
