If you have the line
/unix:7100
or something like that in you XF86Config file comment it out as
the XFS font server is no longer used.
Hope this does something if not post your XF86Config file and the
output of
startx >& test.log

Many thanks - it does not seem to be that. This is my XF86Config -
it was generated by xf86cfg but with the mouse entry edited.
