Yes, this works. There is still the following problem though. 
Upon executing startx I get the following messages: 
rxvt: Failed to open input method 
Warning: Unable to load any usable fontset 

And when I open XFig it is too large for the ice window 
and I can't access all its graphical commands. 
It too reports: Unable to load any usable fontset

I would like to have XFig window smaller but the geometry 
I want to impose on it while calling it doesn't work. 
I guess this is because of the fonts that cannot be scalled. 
Or ...?

Cheers, Mladen.
