Okay, now down to the desperate nitty-gritty. Please check your fonts.alias file in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc for the "fixed" alias. Then check that the expansion (e.g. -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1) exists in fonts.dir. Then check that the file it refers to (e.g. 6x13-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz) also exists and is not damaged (e.g. copy it somewhere else and gunzip; the CRC checking will croak if something went wrong).
