Why each option
The default font server bundled with Xorg is named 'xfs', the X Font Server daemon.
'xfserv' is not a real or recognized X font server binary name.
xfs (X Font Server) is the standard font server shipped with the X Window System, including Xorg 7.0. It listens on TCP port 7100 by default and serves fonts to X clients and the X server itself, allowing centralized font management.
'fonts' is not a font server name; it refers generically to font directories or packages, not an executable daemon.
xfstt is a separate, third-party TrueType-specific font server and is not the default font server included with Xorg.
'fserv' is not a recognized font server or X utility name.
