[potato] Font servers broken?



I have some problems with font servers in potato: 
X sometimes refuses to start because it can't find the "fixed"
font. Commenting the lines that set xfs and xfstt as font servers in
XF86Config cures the problem, but I really would like to know what
happens to the servers. 

ik5pvx@penny:~ $ ps -ax|grep xfs
Bad syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'?
 3551 ?        S      0:00 /usr/X11R6/bin/xfstt --port 7101 --daemon --user nobo
 3610 ?        S      0:00 /usr/bin/X11/xfs
15111 ?        S      0:00 /usr/X11R6/bin/xfstt --port 7101 --daemon --user nobo
16900 pts/1    S      0:00 grep xfs

They seem to be up and running but don't respond.

On a related issue, yesterday the X server suddenly lost all
authorizations and refused to open any other program beyond the three
xterm I had on the screen.

I really would like to be able to give you more informations but I'm clueless.
