gimp-perl server initialization with Xvfb

Hi
When I try to initialize gimp-perl server with Xvfb (as below), I get this error:

Script executed:

Xvfb :200 -ac & DISPLAY=:200.0 nohup /usr/bin/gimp --verbose --no-splash --no-splash-image --enable-stack-trace never --console-messages -i -b '(extension-perl-server 1 0 0) (gimp-quit 0)' < /dev/null > /home/ssk/gimp-log/Gimp200.out 2> /home/ssk/gimp-log/Gimp200.err &

Error: Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/, removing from list!

I am moving Fedora core 1 [gimp 1], to Fedora core 2 [gimp 2]. And I have been using the above for Fedora core 1, and did not have any problem.

Any help/suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Why would you use a virtual X server? GIMP 2.0 doesn't any longer need an X server if started with the --no-interface command-line option. You might even consider to use gimp-console which doesn't even link to GTK+.
