(WW) `fonts.dir' not found

[stumbles]

There is the warning in Xorg.0.log;

(WW) `fonts.dir' not found (or not valid) in "/usr/share/fonts/truetype/".

The directory is there with fonts in it. There is also encodings.dir (symlink to /usr/X11R6/lib/fonts), fonts.cache-1 and fonts.dir in /usr/share/fonts.

Googling around did not help out much and I've no real idea how to fix this. I guess my first question is how to generate a valid new fonts.dir.

Go into that directory and run mkfontdir. This will generate the fonts.dir file so your fonts will work.
