In Xorg.0.log i can find only following fonts loaded:
(==) FontPath set to:
/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc,
/usr/share/fonts/X11/cyrillic,
/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi/:unscaled,
/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/:unscaled,
/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1,
/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi,
/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi,
/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType,
built-ins
On Squeeze there doesn't any xorg.conf needed and I want not use it, so
how can I setup font paths for installed fonts?

How do you know you're missing fonts? I think /usr/share
fonts/X11/misc, should include most othe ones non 100* and 75*, while
most of the true type ones should be included under the defoma path.
Could you run "xlsfonts" under X, and see if you're missing any?
Other than that it depends, on debian I have no problems with fonts at
all, but on RH virtual machines at work, where I don't have root
access, and want terminus for example, I have in my .xinitrc:
For some applications "xset fp+ <font_path>" is enough, and for others
running fc-cache commands are enough. To make them work for all
applications I need both, :-)

fonts in /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/*.pcf.* are going to be ignored. By default.
By "design".
+Could you run "xlsfonts" under X, and see if you're missing any?
xlsfonts won't show the xfonts-* fonts until you fix something...
+fc-cache -fv
Should be enough...
HOWEVER... the problem is going to be a file called «no-bitmaps». it tells
fc-cache to /ignore/ binary fonts...
If you look at «/etc/fonts/conf.d/70-no-bitmaps.conf» you'll see the following:
Its just a link to ../conf.avail/70-no-bitmaps.conf so you can safely delete
it. You can also /force/ bitmap fonts (xfonts) to show up by linking
70-force-bitmaps.conf into /etc/fonts/conf.d/ however you *dont* need to
because it won't ignore them anymore.
Make sure you remember to run fc-cache -fv as *root* in order to flush the
*system* cache. You /will/ have to restart your X environment in order for them
to show up.

When I try to run command
xset fp+ "/usr/share/fonts/opentype/freefont"
then I get:
xset: bad font path element (#23), possible causes are:
Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
Directory missing fonts.dir
Incorrect font server address or syntax
so I must to run:
sudo mkfontdir /usr/share/fonts/opentype/freefont
first and then to run again
xset fp+ "/usr/share/fonts/opentype/freefont"
Why? Is the installation of this font not enough?

I know because when I run my GNUstep application that I'm developing, I
get messages on xterm window:
2010-09-10 09:09:32.166 LPT_Interface[4226] The font specified for
NSMenuFont, Helvetica, can't be found.
2010-09-10 09:09:32.168 LPT_Interface[4226] The font specified for
NSBoldFont, Helvetica-Bold, can't be found.
2010-09-10 09:09:32.170 LPT_Interface[4226] The font specified for
NSFont, DejaVuSans, can't be found.
2010-09-10 09:09:32.196 LPT_Interface[4226] The font specified for
NSLabelFont, DejaVuSans, can't be found.
Why can't I see in Xorg.0.log file ttf-dejavu Fonts loaded, like a line:
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu ??
