	When I fire up mozilla, firefox, OO-2.1.0, and whatever else,
	I'll see this to stdout:

	  
	  pe 16:37 <tao> [5433] mozilla                 
	  Fontconfig warning: no <cachedir> elements found. Check configuration.
	  Fontconfig warning: adding <cachedir>/var/db/fontconfig</cachedir>
	  Fontconfig warning: adding <cachedir>~/.fontconfig</cachedir>
	   
	I've got a seriously old, severely cheep CD with 1500 fonts, plus
	hundreds more I've gleaned that are free.  I've clicked around on
	firefox and mozilla but have no idea how to find, much less:
	"Check configuration."  

	I've read  the html in /usr/X11R6/share/doc/fonconfig, but don't
	see any {/usr/local}/etc/fonts directory.  [???]

	Can anybody clue me in?

	gary
