Unless you want those fonts for a particular reason, I wouldn't worry about it, as those type errors are non-fatal. My Cygwin/X runs fine with the following errors: Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/, removing from list! Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/, removing from list! Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/, removing from list! Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/, removing from list!
