I'm not a LaTeX user, but I see two possibilities here:
1. Some font configuration file for LaTeX is corrupted. (.fd files)
2. cmmi12.tfm is corrupted.
#2 is easy to check, run the following through plain TeX and see if it
works:
% start of file
This is a test: $\alpha\beta\gamma\epsilon$
\end
% end of file
If this doesn't work, replace cmmi12.tfm (either reinstall the Debian
package or delete the file and make a new one with metafont.) If does
work replace LaTeX (whatever package the latex files come in).
