The problem you are having concerns the X Font Server (XFS, not to be
confused with SGI's filesystem for IRIX and Linux that goes by the same
acronym), and an inability of XFree86 to locate it's fixed font file.
But first, I see you are running a pre-release version of the XFree86.
Although this
Every Linux distribution that I know of uses XFree86 for its
implementation of the X Window System. You can also buy commercial
versions of the X Window System, but they tend to be pricey, and what's
the point, anyway, when XFree86 works just fine?
Other UNIX-like operating systems that use
Perhaps you should consider VNC ( http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/ ).
The version for Linux creates a separate virtual desktop for each copy
of the server that is run. This can be connected to with the VNC client
(available also for Windows) over a network, allowing you to run Linux/X
Window
If you are using Xfree86 version 4.x, the configuration file should be
in /etc/X11/ (that's where it's been for me in Redhat and Debian with
XF86v4). It may be called XF86Config, XF86Config-4, or some other
permutation of similar effect.
