I should have posted this earlier.. there is a problem with the xfs in
/etc/rc.d/init.d

the -1 dose not work, you have to remove the -1 and replace it with either
nothing or 7100 (the default port) but that still dose not solve the final
problem wich is this, it will start the xfs then but it will not contiue on
with the bootup and will just stick there. i tried for over and hour to get
to work but finaly gave up and used xfs -port 7100 & on the command line..
although i do not think XFree86 is using the font server , because of the
XF86Config file generated by xf86config program. any ideas people?
