Hi Steffen, My system doesn't have any version of fontconfig installed. Is a fontconfig binary included as part of XFree86 4.4.0? Do you happen to have a list of all of the directories and files that need to be backed up and reinstalled on the updated system (in addition to XF86Config and xinitrc)?
