Hi !

        First I was so optimistic, but the fonts still don't work right. What I
did was enter all available FontPaths in the XF86Config which made half the
fonts running, means I see in KDE2 the writing on buttons and window
titles, but not in menues or any window. So I will list all information
here that might be helpful. I also took a look at the config file for xfs
which states that it is for RedHat 6.0. Is there anything different betweem
xfs for RH6.0 and RH 7.0 ? Any clues ?
        Oke here are the outputs of the various commands:

I edited this file myself and added the FontPath entries except the first
one which I change from "unix/-1" to "unix/:7100".
