New X.org-packages have different font directories, so some settings
in xorg.conf need to be adjusted. grml-x can handle this, but
grml-x does not generate a new xorg.conf if one exists already,
unless you force it to do so. Therefore try running:

  grml-x -force fluxbox

If that does *not* fix your problem please provide output of 'dpkg
--get-selections|grep xfont ; grml-version ' and your xorg.conf for
starting debug the problem on your system.
