Why each option
In an `xorg.conf` file, a line starting with `FontPath` followed by `"unix/:7100"` indicates that fonts should be obtained from a local font server listening on port 7100.
`FontPath= server` is not a valid syntax; it requires a specific path or server address format.
`Fonts` is not the correct directive to specify font server locations; `FontPath` is used for that purpose.
The `FontPath` directive in `xorg.conf` specifies where the X server should look for fonts. `"unix/:7100"` is a common syntax to indicate a local font server (often `xfs` or `fontconfig`) listening on port 7100.
`Fonts= server` is not a valid directive or syntax for indicating a font server in `xorg.conf`.
`Fontserver` is not the correct directive; `FontPath` is the standard directive for specifying font locations, including servers.
