1. start xfs ... then do startx.
2. Take the output from chkfontpath and add the line
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc" as another fontpath
in /etc/X11/XF86Config
3. Comment out: Fontpath "unix/:7100" in XF86Config

The 2nd and 3rd porcesses were obtained after
searching the archives.
Still the same errors :-(
Does anybody know the solution?
Thanks !!
