Well there's one quick way to find out. Assuming you have the correct font packages installed, then just add the font directories in my or Mumia's xorg.conf files that we've posted on this thread. Stop and restart your xserver. If the problem goes away then that's the solution. If it doesn't, then that wasn't the problem.
