You mean which fonts are on disk, but X/fontconfig is unaware of them?
There's no easy way, AFAIK.  Make sure X/fontconfig knows about these
dirs, however:

/usr/share/truetype/
/usr/lib/X11/fonts/
/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType/

remember, X does not recurse to find fonts, so you'll need to explicitly
list any and all subdirs you care about.
