Choosing the wrong font? To see a list of all the fonts GNU Emacs
sees, you can just try to create this list of completions:
M-x set-frame-font RET TAB TAB
and save the buffer (if you try file name completion to save it you
might substitute its contents with possible file name completions).
Now can choose from the list an existing font that the X server
provides.
Another option would be to use:
(setq initial-frame-alist '(
(mouse-color . "midnightblue")
(foreground-color . "grey20")
(background-color . "alice blue")
(internal-border-width . 2)
(line-spacing . 1)
(active-alpha . 0.875)
(inactive-alpha . 0.75)
(font . "-apple-courier std-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-mac-roman")
(top . 25) (left . 650) (width . 91) (height . 50)))
(setq default-frame-alist '(
(border-color . "#4e3831")
(foreground-color . "grey10")
(background-color . "ghost white")
(vertical-scroll-bars . left)
(cursor-color . "purple")
(cursor-type . box)
(active-alpha . 0.75)
(inactive-alpha . 0.875)
(font . "-*-*-medium-r-normal--10-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-osaka")
(top . 50) (left . 150) (width . 89) (height . 56)))

We have to expect it, otherwise we would be surprised.
