The xfonts-arphic-* packages depend on the ttf-arphic-* packages.
the xfonts-arphic-* only contain the apprpriate aliases, etc.,
whereas the ttf-arphic-* contain the real font. Likewise, tfm-arphic-*
only contain the TFM files, but not the actual *.ttf files.
Check here:
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/arphic/*
for the real files. :-)
For xfs-xtt, it should work out-of-the-box.
Make sure your /etc/X11/XF86Config contains the following and only the
following FontPath:
FontPath "unix/:7100"

Which version of xcin 2.5 are you using? If it is the one from potato,
could you please upgrade to xcin (2.5.1.99.pre3-1) in woody?
(I tried to get it in potato, but it got rejected...)
Please let me know if it solves the problem or not. If it does, then
congratulations! And I'll cite this as a valid reason to have
2.5.1.99.pre3 put in potato.

Did you see my reply to Lincoln Leung? Do "xlsfonts" and "xfd" show the
fonts to you?
Cheers,
