To add something else...

I am running into another problem, a bigger problem.  Initially, after 
installing the 20010118 kde 2.1 rpms, I just did a restart X and logged in 
again.  This is where I ran into problems with konqueror, getting the message 
below.  

I then decided to reboot and try that.  This was worse.  X and KDM started 
just fine (without all the system services listed as users).  I logged in and 
KDE started up fine.  I was able to open an xterm, open up my home directory. 
 As soon as I tried to open konqueror for web browsing, however, all went to 
hell.  It would not start at all - no error message.  In addition, I could no 
longer start ANY app.  

I did a Ctrl-Bkspc (since logout wouldn't work either) to restart X and it 
wouldn't.  Instead I saw the message (paraphrased but accurate):

X could not find default font 'fixed'
Cannot find any other usable font

Gah!  I have all the appropriate font rpms that come with XFree86 installed.  
My fontpath is fine:

Current directories in font path:
1: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled
2: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled
3: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled
4: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1
5: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo
6: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/mdk
7: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/drakfont
8: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/pcf_drakfont:unscaled
9: /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1
10: /usr/share/fonts/ttf/western
11: /usr/share/fonts/ttf/decoratives

Every one of these font paths contains fonts...usable, OK fonts.  They all 
derive from XFree86-4.0.2-4mdk rpms.  There is nothing odd about them to the 
first or second approximation.  What IS this damn 'fixed' font that just 
cannot be found but ONLY after trying to run konqueror as a web browser?
