Quoting Samir M. Nassar (nassarsa at redconcepts.net):
> 1- create directory such as /usr/share/fonts/TrueType/
> 2- copy all true type fonts to said directory.

Under redhat 7.3, all this is done for you?

/usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType


> D- edit /etc/X11/fs/config :
> look for [ catalogue = ] and on a new line below the other folders add
> the directory you created to hold your fonts.

Again, in redhat 7.3, this looks like it is done for you.


> E- edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 :
> look for [ Section "Module" ] and on a new line add [ Load  "freetype" ]

Still had to do this.
