error message when starting or exiting


Hi...
I am using fluxbox with 12.0. I notice when I exit from X I see the printout from when I start X and also when I exit and it shows some error messages. Here is what it reads:

>>>>xauth: creating new authority file /home/wa4chq/.serverauth.6610

>>>>waiting for X server to shut down FreeFontPath: FBE :usr/share/fonts/misc"
>>>>refcount is 2, should be 1; fixing

In my home directory I will see several hidden files called .serverauth.12345 (numbers vary)

Is any of this something to worry about?

Thanks

9 out of 10 times you can always find a solution on google. Seriously, I don't know what I'd do without it. The internet would be next to useless without google...
