It should be in xbase-fonts.

You can easily test this via:

$ ssh -X user at host
$ nxnode --agent :1

That will give you the same error, so you can then do a:

$ nxnode --agent -fp "font path options" :1

and then a

$ strace -o log -f nxnode --agent -fp "..."

Then grep the log for open()s that do not succeed near, where the could not open fixed font error is.

PS: Another idea would be to download the commercial Free-Forever .tar.gz version and copy the fonts included in there, which should include the "fixed" font IIRC.
