config/hal] couldn't initialise context: (null) ((null))waiting for X server to shut down FreeFontPath: FPE

I am trying to run x but I keep getting the following error:
I can run xclock and xterm with no problem, it's when I try to do xinit or
startx that I get the following font issue.

I tried installing the development libraries for X, and I also tried the
various xset fp commands but nothing works.

Everything posted in the forums about this issue seems to not have a
definitive resolution.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
