This only affects core-protocol fonts, while you are probably interested in Xft 
fonts.

And you, again, provided not all required information.

3) It is important to know the name of the terminal emulator. xterm?

4) "Only basic fonts" is not the answer. You can obtain the list of core X 
fonts 
with the following command:

xlsfonts

You can obtain the list of Xft fonts with the following command:

fc-list

The BLFS book configures all terminal emulators (possibly except recently-added 
rxvt-unicode) to use Xft fonts.

Unfortunately, scalable fonts that come with Xorg have no Cyrillic glyphs. For 
this reason, the book relies on third-party fonts to cover national alphabets. 
Thus, you should install DejaVu fonts for Cyrillic glyphs in Xft-based 
applications.
