Getting Freefong/Sharefont to show up in GIMP?

Well,

I finally got 1.3.17 installed but I only have 25 or so fonts. Not ideal.

I installed sharefont and freefont but not even the xset commands seem to work any more though here is what I have for chkfontpath:

Current directories in font path: 1: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled 2: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled 3: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled 4: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
5: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/freefont 6: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/sharefont 7: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1
8: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo
9: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic 10: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF
11: /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1
12:
13: /usr/lib/openoffice/share/fonts/truetype 14: /usr/share/AbiSuite/fonts

So, can someone please suggest what I might do to get some damn fonts in GIMP? ;-)

Many thanks...
