Put the 75dpi fonts in the XF86Confg-4 file 'before' the 100dp fonts.
ie
    FontPath    "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled"
    FontPath    "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
    FontPath    "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1"
    FontPath    "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo"
    FontPath    "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi"
    FontPath    "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi"
    FontPath    "/usr/share/fonts/truetype"
