	Did you elect to install the fonts as you were installing
    xf86? Are the fonts in question actually installed?

	Yes, check the FreeBSD web site at www.freebsd.org, and 
    check out the FreeBSD Mall.

	I don't understand why you are having so much trouble with
    xf86. Did you say you were installing from the CD? Do you elect
    all of the config options except Font Server? I don't install
    the font server.

	My only problem with xf86 is the size (as it is being downloaded)
    and the size (as it is being compiled).
