There is guidance in:

/usr/share/doc/fontconfig/fontconfig-user.html

on Ubuntu and debian linux.   This includes examples, but
for TL2011 in the default location, with possibly some fonts in
texmf-local, a minimal example is:

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM 'fonts.dtd'>
<fontconfig>
 <dir>/usr/local/texlive/2011/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype</dir>
 <dir>/usr/local/texlive/2011/texmf-dist/fonts/truetype</dir>
 <dir>/usr/local/texlive/2011/texmf-dist/fonts/type1</dir>
 <dir>/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/fonts/opentype</dir>
 <dir>/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/fonts/truetype</dir>
 <dir>/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/fonts/type1</dir>
</fontconfig>

There are also entries to control rendering.
