That's true. If you load the freetype and type1 modules, and have the appropriate FontPath entries in XF86Config-4, you can do without xfs. However, if you do use xfs, you can dink around with your fonts without having to restart X itself - you only need to restart the X font server. I use xfs for this reason. Can anyone comment on whether using xfs incurs a performance penalty? I can't say I've noticed. Take care, Peter. -- Peter Whysall [EMAIL PROTECTED] The TLD in my email address is sdrawkcab.
