Be sure that your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file contains this:
   Load "type1"
In the "Module" Section:
# Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (they are concatenated together)
# By default, Red Hat 6.0 and later now use a font server independent of
# the X server to render fonts.
    FontPath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType"
    FontPath   "unix/:7100"
EndSection
Section "Module"
        Load  "GLcore"
        Load  "dbe"
        Load  "dri"
        Load  "extmod"
         Load "fbdevhw"
         Load "pex5"

        Load  "record"
        Load  "xie"
