[olpc-help] why can't I install bitmapped fonts?

[stratton]

when I run xfontsel the only font I get is a uselessly-small fixed, and no other options.  "yum install xorg-x11-fonts-100dpi" ran with no errors but I do not have access to those fonts, even though they're in /usr/x11/share/fonts/100dpi.  I've added the appropriate FontPath line in xorg.conf and run xset fp rehash -- even rebooted the machine!  What gives?
