In Gnome all the fonts in ~/.fonts are read, for any app. What I do is copy all my true type fonts to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/ as root, change permissions to all *.ttf to 444, run "mkfontscale" and then "mkfontdir", then as a user in ~, I make a symbolic link to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/ <BR>
This works great and then all my true type fonts are useable as a user WITHOUT the need for redundant copies of fonts. I have a cd with approx 600 TT fonts and I copy all of those plus all the TT fonts from my usual windows mounts. My clients love this shit, lol<BR>

Maybe you need to run 'drakfont' again and add the fonts to the new OOo?
Cheers!
