You don't use xfstt for xfree4 you need to put this line Load "freetype" in your module section of your XF86Config-4 Then you need to get some treutype fonts and put them in a directory. I use /usr/share/fonts/truetype. Then you need to apt-get fttools, and run mkttfdir in that directory. After that put the font path in your XF86Config-4, too. like so: FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/truetype" later
