I got your message twice actually.

I don't think that's possible... but there is information on what is permitted and what not on http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html and http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-taboos.txt
It has never been clear to me how to get rid of this error and since it never affected or changed anything I haven't given it much thought. However, now that I'm playing with DOSEMU 1.4.0, it might be a good time to deal with this error and get rid of it.
The message comes from the dosemu script (/usr/bin/dosemu). It's on my todo list for 1.4.1 to get rid of it, it's harmless, wrong by default, and at the wrong place. dosemu.bin can complain if it can't find the font though. Essentially, if you don't set $_X_font, or use the default "" setting, then a bitmap font is used; X fonts aren't necessary for that. If you set it to "vga" (as was the default in 1.2.1 and earlier), and vga is not available, then the message is relevant. However the script isn't smart enough to know all that.
