Are you sure you removed *all* the cache files? Once I did this it indexed all 202M of fonts I have installed without issue.
I'm thinking you missed a font cache file...give it another shot.
Do this "find /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts -print | grep cache"
This should show you all of them..delete every single one of them.
cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts rm */*cache* worked just fine for me.
Now if only someone could tell me how to get NVidia working again No GLX means Ill have to step back to 4.2.whatever
Kind regards, --
Had the same issue with 3D, but was fixed by running sax2 and switch2nvidia_glx. "You must configure XFree86 4.3.0 with sax2 -m 0=nvidia (0 is a digit, not a letter!)" Where you downloaded the RPM's there is a README text with the above. As for Radeon's, I believe the answer may lie in the Readme file, which I shall not post here as it is rather large and can be easily downloaded from the same place the RPM's are found. Hope this helps. Matt
