Try disabling xfs by commenting out the unix/:-1 Font Path and replacing
it with these in your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4:
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/drakfont"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/pcf_drakfont:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/mdk:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/ttf/decoratives"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/ttf/western"
Then restart X and see if it still happens.
