I've been struggling with Firefox for a few days now, and could really need some pointers. I've followed the instructions in BLFS, and the compile went fine without any errors, but when I'm trying to start Firefox it gives me this:

Hi,

This may be completely off-track but have a look through the archives here. I'm sure I remember something about if fonts weren't installed correctly in X this would happen.

Like I said it might be completely wrong, but something to keep you going until the states wakes up!!!

I've gone through the fonts configurations, but still can't get Firefox to run. For reference I'm using Xorg-6.8.2 following the HLFS instructions.
My /etc/fonts/local.conf looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<!-- /etc/fonts/local.conf file to configure system font access -->

<fontconfig>
<dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts</dir>
</fontconfig>

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts, subdirs and fonts are all world-readable.
I've run mkfontscale and mkfontdir in all subdirs and fc-cache, but still no luck.

I'm not sure how much this has to do with the problem, but the relevant part of my xorg.conf:
