Font Path elements may be either absolute directory paths or a font server identifier.
Font server identifiers have the form:
<trans>/<hostname>:<port-number>
where <trans> is the transport type to use to connect to the font server (e.g., Unix for
UNIX-domain sockets or tcp for a TCP/IP connection), <hostname> is the hostname of
the machine running the font server, and <port-number> is the port number that the
font server is listening on (usually 7000). The default Font Path is:
tcp:/7000,

Xf86 uses ModulePaths as locations to look for loadable modules. The default
ModulePath is:
/usr/lib/X11/Xserver/modules/xf86/,
/opt/graphics/common/lib/
RgbPath can be used to specify the RGB database path. Normally it is never changed.
If it is not specified the built-in path /etc/X11 is used.
In addition, the LogPath can be specified, if server logging information is to be sent
somewhere other than the default log file. The default log file is located at /var/X11/
Xserver/logs/Xf86.n.log, where n is the display number.
All names must be enclosed within double quotes. There may be only one Files section
in the config file. This section does not recognize Option as a keyword.
Module section
The Module section is used to specify which X Server modules should be loaded. The
types of modules normally loaded in this section are X Server extension modules, and
font rasterizer modules. Most other module types are loaded automatically when they
are needed via other mechanisms. There may only be one Module section in the config
file. The format of the Module section is as follows:
Section “Module”
Load “ModuleName”
