The X server supports TrueType fonts now, so apart from the startup
delay we don't need the font server; I'd be happier if it wasn't run
by default.

I'm not certain, but I think I got the could not open default font 
'fixed' the other day because the I had not TrueType module in my 
config, and the misc font came later in my font path than a directory
full of TrueType fonts.
