On my system, to use cyrillic in X I did not add any cyrillic fonts, but
just these lines in xorg.conf (InputDevice section):
Option "XkbLayout" "us,ru(winkeys),de"
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:lwin_toggle"
Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
This way you can toggle the russian keyboard with the left Windows key. It
does not work with xterm just like that, you need uxterm or you can use
roxterm or gnome-terminal etc.

Subject: Cyrillic fonts in X Window.
I have add string 'FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic/"' into
xorg.conf, then I execute fc-cache. However, these fonts unavailable in X.
What is going wrong?
fc-cache -v
Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file
