While XFree86 could always use a few more people using it and reporting
bugs :-), it might not be your best option here. You'd probably be better
off to grab something like xfstt, which is a TrueType font server that
works with XFree86 3.3.x. It's a much easier way to get at your TrueType
fonts in X, and works quite nicely.
