I did not change anything else in the xfs-xtt config file (yes its used) and everything works fine it seems, just make sure to deDOSify the filenames if you raid a BloatNT box. -- Ethan Benson

Does xfs-xtt even use /etc/X11/xfs/config? I haven't messed with it since I don't read Japanese (and there are no English docs). I'd guess the FontPath to the TrueType fonts in XF86Config might cause problems (but probably ignored). And the xfs-xtt server is running? The real question is, how the heck to configure xfs-xtt? -- ++ | Eric G. Milleregm2@jps.net | | GnuPG public key: http://www.jps.net/egm2/gpg.asc | ++
Re: xfs-xtt configuration
You need to remove the entry for port 7101 from /etc/X11/XF86Config. xfs-xtt replaces both xfs and xfstt with a single font server, so it will be running on the "standard" xfs port (7100), rather than xfstt's. X will definitely refuse to start if told to use a font server which isn't active... Cheers!

RE: xfs-xtt configuration
First, you may want to change "unix/:7101" to "inet/127.0.0.1:7101", if you don't have the unix ports module installed, or compiled in your kernel.
