Package: xfs
Version: 1:1.0.1-4
Severity: important

xfs fails to start showing the following error message:

Setting up X font server socket directory /tmp/.font-unix...done.
Starting X font server: xfs/usr/bin/xfs error: CONFIG: unknown parameter
"cache-hi-mark"
/usr/bin/xfs error: CONFIG: unknown parameter "cache-low-mark"
/usr/bin/xfs error: CONFIG: unknown parameter "cache-balance"

The problem seem to be the following lines in /usr/lib/X11/fs/config:

cache-hi-mark = 2048
cache-low-mark = 1433
cache-balance = 70

Unfortunately, commenting them out does not seem to fix the problem,
because while the output of xfs is now

dustpuppy:~# /etc/init.d/xfs restart
Stopping X font server: xfs not running (removing stale /var/run/xfs.pid).
Setting up X font server socket directory /tmp/.font-unix...done.
Starting X font server: xfs.

the command

$ ps auxwww | grep xfs

returns nothing.

Alexander
