sawfish error: unknown font

Hi, I just finished building sawfish-1.8.1, then I encounter an error saying:
Code:
error--> (error "unknown font" "Sans")
Can someone give me a solution? Thanks

Do you have that font installed? Is it spelled correctly? Did you check the config files of Sawfish?

Regards

I haven't edit any settings except for the ~/.xinitrc due to my lack of knowledge for this.
