[SLUG] Xsun has me beat

I am stumped. I started reading:
/usr/share/doc/xserver-xsun/README.Debian then
../xserver-common/README.Debian then I finally found what I think I
wanted in
../xfree86-common/FAQ.gz under section [How do I get the Xserver to find
the "fixed" font?]

I've addressed everything under the recommendations:
xfonts-base? Installed
XF86Config? No need to worry for Xsun
fonts.dir & fonts.alias? Install of xfonts-base already did it.
xfs? ps ax | grep xfs == "/usr/bin/X11/xfs -daemon"

I don't think I need to do a: FontPath "unix/:7100" cause XF86Config
doesn't play a role even though the file is there. Correct?
Anyway, I stop and restarted xfs with "-port 7100" and still no go.

This is what my error reads:
#startx

(using VT number 7)

PEXExtensionsInit: Couldn't open default PEX font file Roman_M
PEXExtensionsInit: Couldn't open default PEX font file Roman_M

waiting for X server to shut down ....

#

That's it. I don't know what else I can look into. I'd like to learn.
