Have you tried removing the 100dpi fontline from XF86Config, or at least
put it as the very last line of the section, so something like this:

Section "Files"
#       FontPath        "unix/:7100"                    # local font
server
        # if the local font server has problems, we can fall back on
these
        FontPath        "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi"
        FontPath        "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1"
        FontPath        "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/CID" 
        FontPath       
"/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType"
        FontPath        "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo"
        FontPath        "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc"
        FontPath        "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic"
        FontPath        "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi"
EndSection

See if that helps.

Good Luck.
