Frank,

I might be wrong, but I think CID are Russian fonts. It's probably safe 
to ignore that message unless you need those fonts. If you don't need 
those fonts and the warning annoys you, then you can comment out that 
line in the Xorg config file.

I also get that other warning, although I have ignored it. I'm not sure 
why that warning is there. I might also get that warning in FreeBSD, 
although it's been awhile since I booted my FreeBSD notebook. I had 
assumed it's an Xorg thing. *shrug*
