When `xfs-xtt' got upgraded just now, it stopped the font server. Now the server is running at 50-70% CPU. I cannot launch any new programs. When I tried to start a `gnome-terminal' from an XEmacs shell buffer, it just sat there waiting, and the X server went to even higher CPU usage. I guess it's looping or something trying to access the font server.
I restarted the font server, (xfs-xtt) and that didn't help; then I also ran `xset fp rehash', and that did not help either. Either the server needs to re-open the connection to the font server, or the font server should not be stopped and restarted until after it is configured... Though I have a feeling that stopping and restarting it would blow away the X server's connection to it anyway, so the X server still needs to reopen the connection. Who should I report the bug to and against what package, or will you take this as the bug report and file it where it belongs? (TIA)
