I am having the same problem with both emacs21 and xemacs (xemacs is even crashing after not finding the fonts).
-- My xorg.conf does contains Section "Files" # local font server # if the local font server has problems, we can fall back on these FontPath "unix/:7100" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/CID" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi" FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi" EndSection -- xlsfonts does find the proper font ... -- Moreover, emacs is looking for ISO8859 fonts but my locale are UTF8 (but I think this was like this before since both locale where generated). Thanks for any help ... I can not work without emacs or xemacs !!
