Removing that entry from the font path didn't help, but thanks for
the suggestion.
Any other ideas? In case it's relevant, I'm running the 2.4.0-test5
kernel.
Also, is there a good way to avoid all the fsck's I've been doing
over the past 24 hours? I have a little loop that sync's the disk,
but booting is still slow. Can my root partition be mounted readonly
while working on X?
