I assume this is X 4.x If it is then you do realize that you shouldn't be using xfs. It's not necessary. the x font server is inside the X server now. Just add "Load "freetype" in the module list to get true type font support. add your font paths in the X config file and you're set. Of course if it's 3.x just ignore this.
