I am assuming that you use xfs to manage your fonts, as most people do (I don't,
though).
First, open the file /etc/X11/fs/config in an editor. In the "catalogue"
section, you will see a bunch of font paths (one per line). These are ordered
from the most preferred font path (top) to the least preferred path (bottom).
All you need to do is rearrange the order of the paths, ensuring there is a
comma at the end of every path except the last. You can also add, remove, or
disable (comment out) font paths.
Save the file, then run 'service xfs restart' as root.
