Thank for your info. and yes the server compiled with a default font

By the way, I can still run startx with the following FontPath, and
don't know you said your won't work?
FontPath tcp/localhost:7100

I tried to comment out ALL FontPath and I can't still run startx, though
the Font looks bad, xfs not running and the following commands give

According to Steve Hsieh [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
I encountered the same problem. Doing a
mkfontdir /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/*
seems to fix the problem for Xfree servers; it still doesn't work after
that for AcceleratedX though.
Thanks a lot for the hint. Unfortunately it doesn't work
Looks like you're missing the FontPath line(s) in the
Files section of /etc/X11/XF86Config. Try man XF86Config.

You are right, I commented out the FontPath lines in XF86Config,
but I am running xfs. Shouldn't that provide all the fonts?
Thanks,

You didn't say (and I can't figure out from your error messages) whether
or not you are using AcceleratedX. If so, you need to go into all of
your font directories and gunzip the fonts, then ncompress them if you
have it, then do the mkfontdir step. AcceleratedX can't do gzipped
fonts, but
I took a look at the output of the X server in an earlier post and it
already uses xfs for the fonts. But you have to configure xfs so that it
looks in the right place for the fonts. Take a look at the 'catalogue'
line in /etc/X11/xfs/config. You have to set this to exactly the set of
font

Xfs is the X Font Server. You won't have much problems if you don't use
it, but it seems to be better than letting the X server manage the fonts
in some cases. For example, you don't have to gunzip all fonts if you are
using an X server that doesn't understand gzipped fonts. And of course you

No, you will have to tell the X server that it must use the font server.
Look in /etc/X11/XF86Config for some lines like:
FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/
Place a '#' in front of all those lines, and add a line:
FontPath tcp/localhost:7100

If I put 'FontPath tcp/localhost:7100' the very first line and follow

Hmm, interesting thought. I'll try it.
