It would help if you posted the output of "mount", but I suspect you're
trying to unmount the user mount, and the default is the system mount.
Try "umount -u /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts"...  Otherwise, please post the
output of "mount", the exact command you give to try to umount it, and the
exact error message you get.
