Since I'm seeing font problems after an upgrade I'm looking for some
correlation. Do you have a "Files" section in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4? I
don't, not after the upgrade yesterday anyway, and upgrade broke my
fonts all around, GNOME, KDE, you name it. 

I'm thinking that may have something to do with it, but the default
font path reported in XFree86.0.log looks reasonable. Well, off to
work for now....

Cheers!
