I have a "headless" box where I upgraded from 7.2 to 7.3 per the 
security issue, now I am unable to start vnc.  I get:

$ less ns1.kq6up.org\:1.log

Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
xsetroot:  unable to open display 'ns1.kq6up.org:1'

These fonts are installed.  Very wierd.

If I run the command:

pkg_info | grep xorg

// I get //
