This is a very common question here. You could have googled for

cygwin "could not open default font 'fixed'"

and you would have found
http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-error-font-eof

If you have chosen "DOS line endings" during setup, then deleting and 
reinstalling cygwin is the best way.

Good luck,

    Sylvain
