Bisecting my ~/.emacs, the following form provokes the display error for me:

(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist
             '(font . "-misc-fixed-bold-r-normal-*-15-*-iso8859-1"))

On other machines, there is the same ~/.emacs w/o problems. On the
machine in question, I have two matching fonts:

-misc-fixed-bold-r-normal--15-120-100-100-c-90-iso8859-1
-misc-fixed-bold-r-normal--15-140-75-75-c-90-iso8859-1

Does this tell you anything?

Best regards, Michael.
