When I comment out: Fontpath "unix/:7100" from XF86Config it gives me the error:
Fatal server error: No valid FontPath could be found
Making the default runlevel as 5 does not make a difference. Just that the error messages are printed on a blue background :-)
hmmm... what can it be :-?

I have tried the following things but still the error persists:
start xfs ... then do startx.
Take the output from chkfontpath and add the line
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc" as another fontpath in /etc/X11/XF86Config
- Comment out: Fontpath "unix/:7100" in XF86Config
file
The 2nd and 3rd porcesses were obtained after searching the archives.
Still the same errors :-(
Does anybody know the solution?
Thanks !! Kapil

give the command service xfs start or /etc/init.d/xfs start before startx
