It may not be as much an issue with xfs as it is an issue with the configuration associated with it. I use xfs-xtt (w/ Debian). Rumor has it that xfs-xtt works much better, but I haven't been able to notice a difference other than it doesn't crash while xfs did (could have been a libc6 issue on this end, tho'). http://x-tt.dsl.gr.jp/ Make sure you're specifying TrueType fonts first in the `catalogue =' section of the config file. Also, you may need to remake your fonts.{dir,scale,alias}.
