I have installed X11R6 on my Amiga 3000, but am having trouble getting it
running.  I only have the X11R5 Xmono server, but that shouldn't pose a
problem, right?  When I run startx (or xinit) it appears to flip over into
graphics mode but then immediately returns to text mode with a message
resembling:
   Cannot set default font directory '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc',
   '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi','/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi'

But when I do a directory of each of those directories, they are all valid
and contain fonts.  Any ideas as to what I need to change?  I have the
feeling it's really minor, but have been unable to nail it down.

Please help!
