I did not have a .gtkrc-2.0. I tried with yours, after installing
gtk2-engines-gtk-qt, but it didn't fix the bug. It did look different,
though. Yes, I run xfs, and I originally had only unix:/7100 listed in the
font section of xorg.conf. I also added the standard font directory paths,
but it did not have any effect.
Deleting everything gnome-related in ~ did not change anything either
(.gnome2, .gnome2_private, .gconf, .gconfd)
