And check you have 0.0.6.6-0.0.2004_03_11.6 at least - the previous rpm
sets had a borked xfs install, which caused X startup to fail.
I always disable XFS support and reconfigure X11 to not use a font
server, but font files directly from disk. Excerpt from XF86Config:
Section "Files"
RgbPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"
# FontPath "unix/:7100"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1"
EndSection
I don't see any benefit from running a font server locally, much less
running a font server over the network.
