Just to make it clear, my situation is somewhat different. I do not
want to use xfs but:

1. A rack mounted server, where gimp is installed (without screen
   and keyboard)
2. Many client PCs, each running a local X11 server with locally
   installed xfnt Packages. Gimp runs on the server but its output
   is displayed on one of the client PCs.

Cheers, Thomas
