After an attempt at re-running fc-cache simply hanged, I straced it and moved a couple of font files it didn't much care for out of its way. After this it was able to successfully run and gnome-session was able to start up.
This really does not seem like an elegant way of handling corrupt or bogus fonts :). -- Mike Markley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GPG: 0x3B047084 7FC7 0DC0 EF31 DF83 7313 FE2B 77A8 F36A 3B04 7084 No problem is insoluble. - Dr. Janet Wallace, "The Deadly Years", stardate 3479.4
