Do a 'df -h'. Chances are that your / partition is 100% full, which
means that xfs can't create the necessary files/sockets that it needs to
run. Delete some files so that it's down below 95% used. The reason it
is 95% is because regular users can only fill the filesystems up to 95%,
only root can go to 100%. The X Font Server runs as user xfs, so the
regular user rules apply to it.
