Problems with Xorg[SOLVED]

Well I followed the guide and got the fvwm-devel from the unstable repo.  However, I am having some issues that outside the scope of my experience.  After extensive searching I found little no helpful information.  So since I can not ask a stupid questions here goes it.  What am I doing wrong to get such an output from

Re: Problems with Xorg[SOLVED]

Your xorg.conf would be more helpful.

Re: Problems with Xorg[SOLVED]

You don't have all those font dirs (which doesn't matter), two keyboard options with no proper values defined and your gfx card driver outputs some harmless warnings.
So, what's the problem?

Re: Problems with Xorg[SOLVED]

startx starts the X server then it shutsdown with the following message

Re: Problems with Xorg[SOLVED]

Just to be on the safe side in terms of fonts: pacman -S xorg-fonts-misc xorg-fonts-100dpi ghostscript ttf-ms-fonts

Re: Problems with Xorg[SOLVED]

(WW) `fonts.dir' not found (or not valid) in "/usr/share/fonts/100dpi".

X server can`t use fonts without fontdirs, so for each directory in /usr/share/fonts (especially misc, 100dpi and cyrillic) go to that directory and run "mkfontdir `pwd`" there.

Re: Problems with Xorg[SOLVED]

Thank you very much for that tip my errors have gone down dramatically and X is actually loading properly now.

Re: Problems with Xorg[SOLVED]

It's weird that the fonts.dir files ware missing. They're supposed to be created automatically.
