Thanks!

My new question... After I successfully generated the fonts.dir file,
and added
   FontPath    "unix/:7101"
   FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType/"

to XF86Config, X no longer starts, and I'm seeing error messages that
X cannot set default font path. 

Did I have to do some magic in /etc/X11/xfs/config? Here's what mine
looks like.

,----[ config ]
| # /etc/X11/xfs/config
| #
| # X font server configuration file
| 
| # allow a maximum of 10 clients to connect to this font server
| client-limit = 10
| # when a font server reaches its limit, start up a new one
| clone-self = on
| # log errors using syslog
| use-syslog = on
| # turn off TCP port listening (Unix domain connections are still permitted)
| no-listen = tcp
| # paths to search for fonts
| catalogue = /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType/
| # in decipoints

| deferglyphs = all

Thanks for any input!
