I fixed this by installing "font related packages" not installed already, one at a time and testing until it worked. Under the X11 group of packages, I installed in the following order: xorg-x11-f100 xorg-x11-fsrv gv It started working when gv (and whatever dependencies) was installed. I suspect the first two packages had little to do with the success.
