You probably have a problem with the permission of the files

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/fonts.alias
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/fonts.dir

(one RPM upgrade made them readable only by root).

Just do (as root)

chmod a+r /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/fonts.*

and restart xfs (service xfs restart).

It should work after that.

Best,

Diego
