I include a call to "xset +fp tcp/7100" in my .xinitrc. Result is that the ttfs are available to X without the problems incurred adding the fontpath to XF86Config. On Sat, 4 Mar 2000, Juergen Braukmann wrote:

Well, that won't help at all: George runs (like me) xfsft, to display TruType fonts that X won't. Therefor, you have to tell X about the font server (running on localhost, port 7100).

Hello, I've installed xfsft according to directions on a HOW-TO. I redid this HOW-TO and put down every single step, command line by command line in getting TrueType fonts working. It can be found in it's current rough state at http://www.firstnethou.com/gz/xfsft_HOW-TO.html
But it's not working! I When I do startx I get "Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed'". If I comment out the line FontPath "tcp/localhost:7100" in XF86Config then I can start X just fine. ...
