You must have just missed the 2+ weeks of discussion on this.
As root, do the following (after you quit netscape):
cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
mkfontdir
xset fp rehash
You must have done what I did (and several others) and only installed
one part of the misc fonts, so the
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/fonts.dir file needs to be rebuilt so
that the missing fonts are not included.
