The CLI way:
mkfontdir /mnt/win_c/windows/fonts
chkfontpath --add /mnt/win_c/windows/fonts
reboot, I upgraded a kernel anyways, and lots of pretty TTF's. Replace with your directory of fonts. This only works for those that run XFS, and have the chkfont package installed.
Otherwise you added the font path line to your XF86Config file and make sure you load the appropriate font module. Either of the three ways will work on Mandrake. The DrakFont way is the slowest boot though.
