This is a VFAQ (Very Frequently Asked Question). There is something wrong with your font server (xfs). It needs to either be restarted, or the problem causing it not to start must be located and fixed. To all: Why doesn't Red Hat configure the X server to look for a basic set of fonts via the filesystem instead of xfs, and only go to xfs for other fonts besides the ones necessary to start the server? It seems they are not taking advantage of the fact that the dependency on xfs was removed in XFree86 4.x.
