APIC for single-processor boards is enabled in the kernel, however not
supported by all BIOSes. --> /usr/src/kernel-source-blah/Documentation/i386
(?) /IO-APIC.txt

The local fontserver. as i learned the last week, you need only one of them,
xfs or xfs-xtt. You can purge the other. Recommend xtt for better truetype
capabilities. Don't forget to adaqpt the entries in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and
lookup /etc/X11/fs-xtt/config. In bokarrottop [Freitag, 11. April 2003 08:01]:

out (#) if you don't like the log messages. But be aware of that when
changing your configuration ....you may decide to use the defoma fontmanager
in future; or let go the fontservers for XFree's inbuilt capabilitites...

Don't have that module here... probably it'S listed in your /etc/modules.conf.
Sometimes modules are modprobed that are requested from a software that isn't
aware of that modules compiled into the kernel. Usually no problem, then.
