Hussam, look in /etc/fonts/suse-post-user.conf and you'll see the following:

	<alias>
		<family>monospace</family>
		<prefer>
			<family>Consolas</family>
			<family>Andale Mono</family>
			<family>DejaVu Sans Mono</family>
			<family>SUSE Sans Mono</family>
			<family>Bitstream Vera Sans Mono</family>
			<family>Courier New</family>
			<family>Cumberland AMT</family>
			<family>Nimbus Mono L</family>

If you have neither Andale Mono nor Consolas installed in your font paths, but do have DejaVu Sans Mono installed, your monospace font will be DejaVu Sans mono. If you'll check other distros, you'll see similar alias lists in various files in /etc/fonts/* where the first in the list is either DejaVu Sans Mono or Bitstream Vera Sans Mono. The currently developed DejaVu Sans Mono is a superset/successor to Bitstream Vera Sans Mono. If you have a preference for some other font to be your system-wide monospace, just move your choice to the top of the list.
