[XeTeX] XeTex: can't use font

[Zavier Zavier]

Hi,

I am trying to use a new font under XeTex/XeLatex. I keep getting error
messages and no success. Thanks for any help which may be given.
The environment is: Ubuntu, Texworks, TexLive 2009 distribution.

I installed the font. It is available on the system (for example, to
Abiword).
I ran texhash as root after installing.
I also ran sudo fc-cache -v-f

Here is the sample Xelatex file:

% !TEX TS-program = xelatex

% !TEX encoding = UTF-8

% This is a simple template for a XeLaTeX document using the "article"
class,

% with the fontspec package to easily select fonts.

\documentclass[11pt]{article} % use larger type; default would be 10pt

\usepackage{fontspec} % Font selection for XeLaTeX; see fontspec.pdf for
documentation

\defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex-text} % to support TeX conventions like
``---''

\usepackage{xunicode} % Unicode support for LaTeX character names (accents,
European chars, etc)

\usepackage{xltxtra} % Extra customizations for XeLaTeX

\setmainfont{LeMonde Livre Classic Normal} % set the main body font
(\textrm), assumes Charis SIL is installed

%\setsansfont{Deja Vu Sans}

%\setmonofont{Deja Vu Mono}

% other LaTeX packages.....

\usepackage{geometry} % See geometry.pdf to learn the layout options. There
are lots.

\geometry{a4paper} % or letterpaper (US) or a5paper or....

%\usepackage[parfill]{parskip} % Activate to begin paragraphs with an empty
line rather than an indent

\usepackage{graphicx} % support the \includegraphics command and options

\title{Brief Article}

\author{The Author}

%\date{} % Activate to display a given date or no date (if empty),

% otherwise the current date is printed

\begin{document}

\maketitle

%\section{}

%\subsection{}

\end{document}


Here is the error message:
