Problem with X11 fonts under Fedora 17.

Rolf, Like Marc, I'm getting rusty on the Fedora details, but it's possible that the X server or the font server needs to be reset before changes take hold. Possible "xset fp rehash" in a terminal window? Or maybe "service xfs restart".
I tried
xset fp rehash
and that produced no response --- no error message, but no "acknowledgement"
either. Then I tried
sudo service xfs restart
and got
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl restart xfs.service Failed to issue method call: Unit xfs.service failed to load: No such file or directory. See system logs and 'systemctl status xfs.service' for details.
So I then tried
systemctl status xfs.service
and got
xfs.service
Loaded: error (Reason: No such file or directory)
Active: inactive (dead)
Looks ominous, to say the least. No idea what to do about it, but.
Doing
yum search xfs.service
gives
Warning: No matches found for: xfs.service No Matches found
I hope *somebody* out there can point me in the right direction.
cheers,
Rolf
