hi! i had the problem, that some fonts did not display, and for some fonts only some characters could be displayed, whithout any system, say not only a specific subset. as this was only for one user, and not for all, i could narrow it down to a problem that LD_LIBRARY_PATH was set to /usr/X11/lib (X11 is just a link to X11R6) - removing this solved the problem...
