edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and look for font directories

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/* is the old deprecated place for fonts

they should be in /usr/share/fonts/* now

some docs in 6.8.0 still has not been updated with the new font path but
normally, distro packagers would certainly put symlink to make applications
using the old directory layout work

also, please tell exactly which xorg version you used (6.7.0/6.8.0 or any RC)
