You need to specify TFM files, that is, files with the tfm extension.
I think you've specified lmr10.pfb.  On my system, I have these:

    cork-lmr10.tfm
    cs-lmr10.tfm
    ec-lmr10.tfm
    el-lmr10.tfm
    l7x-lmr10.tfm
    qx-lmr10.tfm
    rm-lmr10.tfm
    t5-lmr10.tfm
    texnansi-lmr10.tfm
    ts1-lmr10.tfm

The prefixes are font encodings.  You probably need ec-lmr10 (note
that you'll need to adjust accent commands if you use them, because
accents in T1 are in different positions than in the standard OT1
encoding) and maybe some symbols from ts1-lmr10.  To see what symbols
are available, run

    tex testfont

and follow the instructions.
