fonts

After recent tribulations getting dual-head setup, I'm noticing some font problems. While in the process of setting up to use my AGP TNT2 and my PCI voodoo 3 (the trick was to tell the BIOS to use PCI for the primary controller, so that both buses would be initialized), X started failing to load because it couldn't find the fixed fonts. So I added

FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc"

to the Files section, and that took care of it. But now a few things (xmms, for one) are showing odd fonts. I've since added these others to the FontPath. The biggest problem, though, is xawtv segfaulting. I still have xfs running, and `chkfontpath -l` looks unaltered

$ /usr/sbin/chkfontpath -l
Current directories in font path:
1: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled
2: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled
3: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled
4: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
5: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1

It's like X just can't totally talk to it anymore. The xawtv output is below.
