This indicates that your personal computer's "font service" (for  
example libfontconfig in Linux) does not know this font and therefore  
XeTeX assumes you selected a TeX font and so kpsewhich (or  
libkpathsea) is used to find it. The command

	fc-list | grep -i torun

would prove it in Linux. So update your personal computer's "font  
service" to also provide these TeX fonts. And the same means have to  
be applied for any other Unicode encoded font. PostScript fonts seem  
to be mostly (there were some messages that they could not be used)  
supported by xdvipdfmx, XeTeX's output driver that converts the XDV  
file to final PDF.

For some reason, this fortune reminds everyone of Marvin Zelkowitz.
