Ok, that confirms that problem is not in emacs itself. |

If you have just these lines in xorg.conf then you are probably not |
| 26 |
using xfs. Try start X with and without xfs running, do 'xlsfonts | |
| 27 |
wc -l' and compare results. If there will be no difference you can |
| 28 |
unmerge xfs. |

Back to 8x13... I must admit now it's a mystery for me why X does |
| 31 |
not find 8x13 while it finds 6x13. Try following: |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
1. Do 'equery belongs /usr/share/fonts/misc' |
| 34 |
This gives you list of all packages that have some files in misc directory. |
| 35 |
2. Stop X. |
| 36 |
3. Unmerge all packages listed in 1. |
| 37 |
4. Remove all remaining files in misc directory (or move them |
| 38 |
somewhere else). |
| 39 |
5. Emerge packages unmerged in 3. (or you can try emerge just |
| 40 |
font-misc-misc. |
