Hi!
It is possible that the font server is listening on "unix/:-1" rather than
"unix/:7100"
To rule out that possibility, and make the config file more robust for later,
edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and look for where it says:
FontPath "unix/:7100"
And add in
FontPath "unix/:-1"
(You can leave them both in their. It will use whatever it can)
Let me know how whether this works.
