You need to add:

FontPath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/artwiz-fonts/"

To your XF86Config file, then restart X.  You should also run fc-cache
-f /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/artwiz-fonts to make this font recognizable
to GTK+-2 apps.

Contact the gkrellm1 maintainer.

This was explained by the pkg-message that was cat'd to your screen when
you installed Mozilla.  If you don't have The JDK port installed, you
will see this error.  It is non fatal, and you can ignore it.

gdkxft is not supported by gnome@, and it is recommended you do not use
it.  Upgrade to GNOME 2 instead.
