This does help, but it still doesn't work. Now it says that the port is
unavilable or used by another program. I tried switching the port in
/etc/fonttastic/config and /etc/X11/XF86Config to varios ports, but no
go. Is there some way I can find out what is using which ports?

Oh, you want to know how !
Add :
FontPath "tcp/127.0.0.1:7102"
to the 'Section "Files"' of XF86Config and ensure you have loopback thingy
enabled ntsysv -- network, ifconfig should display something like :
loLink encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3924 Metric:1
RX packets:552 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:552 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
I think you should also be able to add:
alternate-servers = tcp/127.0.0.1:7102
to /etc/X11/fs/config but I have never tried that.
Hope this helps,
Owen

Hi:
Under the current beta (as of a few days back, problem existed on
all betas though) wordperfect 2000 will not start. It appears that the
fonttastic font server is failing. I had tried a few things, but it is
still not working. It complains that the file /etc/init.d (which is
really a directry) conflicts with the initscripts package (this error is
given when trying to install the fonttastic RPM). Has anyone gotten this
to work?
