Thanks to everyone for the tip -- indeed, it was a color depth problem. In fact,
I did have it at 16bpp in my XF86Config file, but when I changed it to 15 all the
exceptions went away!

On another note, I mucked around a bit with the fonts.properties -- basically
changing the zapf dingbats lines to match my own, as I already had those
installed. In spite of the fact that I don't get any font error messages, things
look rather ugly. Does anyone know of a good fonts.properties file floating
anywhere for 1.2 on RedHat Linux?

Thanks again!
