Can anyone say why I have the error messages in my Xorg.0.log file that
I list below?

xlsfonts(1) does not list fonts that are in /usr/share/fonts.

If I add them with "xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/courier-prime" they appear
and then disappear in the "xset -q" display.  They are not available to
xlsfonts, though.

Interestingly enough, adding them with the plus in back: "xset fp+
/user/..." causes them to persist, but still not be available to xlsfonts.

An inspection of /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows this:

   [   663.033] (WW) The directory "/usr/share/fonts/TTF/" does not exist.
   [   663.033]    Entry deleted from font path.

These directories all exist and have populated fonts.dir and fonts.scale
files in them.
