I am speaking about hundred megs per a day

and everything I have in this log is the text above. I know how can I
control the size of my logs, but the size of this log file (XFree86.0.log) is not normal. 

as I see it, XFree loads  the DOSENCODING module and after a few seconds
unloads it. I want to stop this process and to load or unload the module
permanently.
