Yes. The font server is likely (you'll have to check it's configs) logging to syslog, you need to find out why it's dying. > The only consistant thing that I see is this line right before it > crashes (in xdm-errors) > > > > (==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/XF86Config-4" > > > Could not init font path element unix/:7100, removing from list! > > > > > > Fatal server error: > > > could not open default font 'fixed' That's not the font server, that is the *X server* trying to restart and being unable to, *because* the font server has already died.
