GNOME2 "Sans 10" font problems



Hey everyone,
	Recently a bug in the postrm files in the xfonts-gimpers
packages broke my XFree86 4.1.0-17 when it somehow disabled my X
cursor after removing itself. After purging X and reinstalling it, all
GNOME 2 applications now refuse to start on my box and give error
messages similar to the one below:

** (nautilus:8102): WARNING **: Couldn't load font "Sans 10" falling
back to "Sans 10"

** (nautilus:8102): WARNING **: Couldn't load font "Sans 10" falling
back to "Sans 10"

** (nautilus:8102): WARNING **: All font failbacks failed!!!!

Even after purging all GNOME, X and font packages, I can't seem to get
GNOME 2 working again like it was in perfect order 24 hours ago. Does
anyone have an idea what is going on here or what has been broken and
isn't getting fixed by reinstalling packages?

I have the following packages installed:

ii  xfonts-100dpi  4.1.0-17       100 dpi fonts for X
ii  xfonts-75dpi   4.1.0-17       75 dpi fonts for X
ii  xfonts-base    4.1.0-17       standard fonts for X
ii  xfonts-scalabl 4.1.0-17       scalable fonts for X
ii  xfs            4.1.0-17       X font server
ii  xfstt          1.2.1-1        TrueType Font Server for X11
ii  msttcorefonts  1.0.1          Installer for Microsoft TrueType core fonts

Thanks in advance,
Andrew "Netsnipe" Lau
