Fonts under X, RH5

  Hi,

Well, I managed to mess up my libs pretty bad, so I figured, what the
hell, why not install RH5, see if it works.

So far everything's ok except for the fonts! For some reason, it can't
seem to load some of the font dirs... when I go
  xset fp+ /usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/
I get:
xset:  bad font path element (#35), possible causes are:
    Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
    Directory missing fonts.dir
    Incorrect font server address or syntax

The directory does exist, and there IS a fonts.dir in it. Both are
globally readable. X manages to read some dirs (like freefonts and the
type1 fonts), but not others... anyone have a clue?

			Bye,
