[K12OSN] Custom XF86Config

[Jim McQuillan]

Jim,

THe 'unix/:7100' is definately a problem.
You should be able to comment out that line, and it should use the
additional font paths.  Assuming you have the fonts installed in the ppc
tree.

If you do want to use the font server, then you could try:

   tcp/192.168.0.254:7100

Of course, make sure the IP address matches your server.
