Yes, there are. You have to tell the server to use the font server at port
7100 at the localhost (if you haven't changed the default port number).
Edit /etc/X11/XF86Config . In the section "Files", add a line
FontPath "tcp/localhost:7100"
and remove all other "FontPath" lines (or place a comment character (#)
in front of them). Restart X and the X server will use the font server.
You can check the server's output on stdout (or is it stderr?) to see if
it is really using the font server. If you use startx to start X, this is
on the console you were when you typed "startx", if you use xdm to start X
it is in /var/log/xdm-errors.
