I didn't bother to check if I do too, but random, meaningless errors like this 
are pretty common with both GTK and QT/KDE apps.  If the app doesn't appear 
to be broken, don't worry about it.

Things like this:

X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 169
  Major opcode:  148
  Minor opcode:  3
  Resource id:  0x0
Failed to open device
X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 169
  Major opcode:  148
  Minor opcode:  3
  Resource id:  0x0
Failed to open device


Or this:

open: No such file or directory
[MGA] Couldn't open: /dev/mga_vid
open: No such file or directory
[MGA] Couldn't open: /dev/mga_vid


Or this:
