I think you can ignore this message.

Make sure that the "xterm" package is installed and that /usr/bin/xterm
has the correct properties:

$ ls -l /usr/bin/xterm
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root utmp 363280 2007-06-18 15:53 /usr/bin/xterm

This is harmless as far as I know. It seems that we eliminated the "font
fixed" problem.

This all looks OK to me; the problem seems to be that you are missing
the xterm package. If you want to use a different x-terminal-emulator
then you have to set up your ~/.xinitrc accordingly.
