U are not the only one, who doesn't know what for
/etc/fonts/fonts.conf  is ...

it belongs to fontconfig ebuild, and XFree
depends on it ...
changes are probably taken only at buildtime
and therefore XFree86Config fontpath setup is
needed (correct me if I am wrong)


I use xfs (X Font Server) which is litle bit more complicated for setup ...

change fontpath in XFree86config[-4] to :

FontPath "unix/:-1" #use socket

modify /etc/X11/fs/config

rc-update add xfs default
run /etc/init.d/xfs start
(re)start XFree

Forget the most obvious ...
I added them to /etc/fonts/fonts.conf
Never thought about XF86Config :( *sigh*

And I guess the corefonts problem is a package problem and has nothing to do with my system and / or configuration?

Thanks!!

Set the font patch in /etc/X11/XF86Config

Just add another line:

FontPath "/pathtoyourfonts"
