This would be caused by either adding a bogus font path or a valid font
path with no fonts.dir. Looking at /usr/dt/bin/Xsession I see several
lines where the font path is being handled and entries are added.
For debugging, you could temporarily replace the #! /usr/local/bin/ksh93
(this is on FreeBSD, on other systems it's probably different) by a
#! /usr/local/bin/ksh93 -x and see which one of the "xset fp+" doesn't
work.

The lpstat error can be safely ignored, but in case you use cups, it would
be a good idea to define a default printer queue to get rid of the error.
"No protocol specified" is most definitely an Xlib error caused by Xvnc not
being able to find your MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE.
Likewise for the "error (pid 3949): cannot read "C" message catalog.
Using default language". This is usually a side-effect of a program not
being able to communicate with your X-Server. It tries to open the
message catalog for your locale in order to provide you a localised
error message, fails and defaults to the default locale. This usually
should neverhappen with the "C" locale unless your message catalogs
for this program are missing altogether, but that's a different story.

Anyway, if you google for "Xvnc MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE 'no protocol specified'",
you should be able to find a number of solution approaches. Maybe one of
them will help.


Kind regards,

Martin
