Xfree 3.3.5 is installed. xfs was reconfigured to listen to port 7100 (is it ever used by the local X when started with -port -1 as it is by default?) and FontPath adjusted. start gimp, see all the new (partly weird) fonts in the text tool, pick some fonts, try to place them inthe picture, xfs crashes. I completely removed xfs and just put in fontpaths and all works fine. note: the urw fonts should be before the normal Type1 fonts, which they arent by default. the URW fonts arent used in the default case, which is a waste, they are much better.
Try upgrading to the 3.3.5 errata packages ; xfs wasn't 64-bit clean.
