I had a similar problem after upgrading to potato, and it turned out that
the xfonts pacakges hadn't been installed correctly. Try veritying that
xfonts-base is correctly installed (dpkg --list reported that is *was*
intalled on on my system, but with no version number, but a dpkg --contents
on the archive showed that is was, in fact, not installed properly).
