Error starting xfce

[Dark Shadow]

I am trying to get xfce going and have got it all compiled but when I
try to startx I get it to run for a few seconds with a picture of a
mouse and the name xfce under it then X just quits back to the
console.

Please if you know what I need to do (don't assume I have anything
installed since this is a "Linux From Scratch" that was only started 3
days ago) on that note I do have fontconfig installed but if it
requires more configuration then "configure&&make&&make install" I
have not done it.

No fonts found; this probably means that the fontconfig
library is not correctly configured. You may need to
edit the fonts.conf configuration file. More information
about fontconfig can be found in the fontconfig(3) manual

The application 'xfce-mcs-manager' lost its connection to the display :0.0;
most likely the X server was shut down or you killed/destroyed
the application.
