I am using Lubuntu 11.10. Every time when I shutdown the system I can read on the black screen an error for trying to stop xfstt. I found info about this process here. I have K20xfstt in /etc/rc0.d and also in other folders.

But I don't know if it is necessary. Probably I installed it during the installation of Maple or Java. I don't know!

So, nowadays is necessary to use it or may I remove it?

xfstt is the "X11 Font Server for True Type Fonts", so unless you don't want fancy fonts, don't remove it. X11 may break without it.

OK. Thanks, but yesterday I tried to remove using apt-get remove. Since that everything is working until now. I am not seeing any change on my laptop. Maybe Lubuntu does not make use of this font server. Lets see. – Sigur Nov 17 '12 at 14:20
