Do you have all the font packages. I'm using debian but that should be the same. I have these packages installed and it works fine:
Quote:
debian:~# dpkg -l | grep xfont
ii xfonts-100dpi 4.3.0.dfsg.1-6 100 dpi fonts for X
ii xfonts-75dpi 4.3.0.dfsg.1-6 75 dpi fonts for X
ii xfonts-base 4.3.0.dfsg.1-6 standard fonts for X
ii xfonts-scalable 4.3.0.dfsg.1-6 scalable fonts for X

If it doesn't work then you can try reinstalling (mandrake is the distro with rpm isn't it?) or if you're sure they're there you might try editing the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file to set the right path of the fonts
Hope this helps
edit: one package was cut off and I can't quickly remember the command to widen the table so I added it manually
