Seems that I am missing the font server (:7100) from my
F8 installation or was that taken out by xorg?

I see there is an xorg-x11-xfs rpm in the fedora repo, so
you could install it if you need it, but the native X server
running on the local display isn't configured to use a
font server anymore, so you'd only need it if other apps
somewhere needed access to a font server (like nxclient
connecting from a windows box).

I think it was taken out by RH/Fedora. I think the decision is that it
doesn't add anything.


OTOH the message is only a warning; knowing it's not a problem it can be
ignored.

Since it's actually in the F8 release notes (couldn't be bothered to read
them?) that xfs is no longer installed....
