Right, these are directories. I need to know whether you have font files
inside of any of them.
The directories 100dpi, 75dpi, misc, Speedo don't seem to have files in them.
They only seen to contain the following files.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi$ ls
encodings.dir fonts.alias fonts.cache-1 fonts.dir
Type1 however seems to have font files in it which are symlinks to
/usr/share/fonts/type1.

Your FontPaths section *was* updated; I need to know whether you edited it
by hand, or if it was updated automatically, to know what the proper fix is
for you.
No, I haven't updated the font section by hand.
I know that there is a bug in the auto-updating of xorg.conf for the new
font paths, and it gives results that look like what you quoted. This may
explain your font problems, but I don't want to tell you to edit your
xorg.conf by hand if you haven't done so before, because this will interfere
with future automatic updates.
OK.
Thanks.
