xset +fp /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi 
xset +fp /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi 
xset fp rehash

Permanent solution: add the following lines to /etc/X11/xorg.conf as root (under the "Files" section):

FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi"

Simage:

Download simage 1.6.1
'configure'
'vi libtool'
comment out the line starting with "predep_objects" to avoid multiple definition errors
'make'
'make install'

Coin3D:

Download Coin3D 2.5.0
'configure --disable-dl-simage'
make sure simage is listed to be statically linked, not at run-time
'vi Makefile'
in line starting with 'CC' add '-fPIC'
to avoid linker problem with libGL.so:
- 'su'
- mv /usr/lib/libGL.so /usr/lib/libGL.so.bak
- ln -s /usr/lib64/libGL.so /usr/lib/libGL.so
- exit
'make'
copy libraries to extern_libs/lib64
