Actually the log shows:
-------------
Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/, removing 
from list!

Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
-------------

The first bit about dah/dit/dah/CID is just a warning. The other message 
is the error.

This issue has just been resolved in the thread "Problem with starting X 
server".
