Hi,

I had a similar problem here, and I fixed that by editing
/System/Settings/fonts.conf (or was it /S/S/fonts/fonts.conf?). It was
just a matter of adding <dir> /Files/Fonts </dir> and <dir> ~/.fonts
</dir> plus <cache> ~/.fonts-cache </cache> into it, as suggested by
fontconfig every time it wasn't able to find the cache.
