Here it is telling you that your the X-server can't read any of
the font path. Why? more than likely you have omitted the ";" after the
quote at the end of the xfstt font server statement. It should read as
follows:
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/",
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/",
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/",
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/",
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/",
"inet/127.0.0.1:7100";
If this doen't fix the problem, remove the last line and move the
";" up to it's new place. Try the X-Server now - work? If so, try to
replace the "inet/127..."; with "tcp/localhost:7100";
If this doesn't work, something else is wrong with the xfstt font server.
