This is not an Emacs warning.  Searching for it on the Internet brings
these pages, please see if anything there is relevant to your setup:

  https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/using-gui-results-missing-charsets-string-fontset-conversion-warning
  https://access.redhat.com/solutions/409033
  https://superuser.com/questions/1531413/getting-warning-missing-charsets-in-string-to-fontset-conversion
  https://gromnitsky.blogspot.com/2021/05/missing-charsets-in-string-to-fontset.html

After skimming those, it seems to be related to the X font setup, so
maybe it is relevant to the display problems you see.  Not sure.
