Lars,
I don't know understand why xorg.conf isn't the place. If there are no
fonts for
some language they should be installed and corresponding lines placed
into xorg.conf.
Some fonts may be defective. So they shouldn't be put there.
So xorg.conf has to do with the problem.
I specifically have an issue with the font calls "sans-serif" that FF
uses to show Cyrillic texts.
It must have come from FontPath in XServer.
