General :: Gentoo+urxvt+terminus: How To Change Font Version
Jun 27, 2011In my Debian installation I can type extended ASCII characters such as åäö by default using the terminus font, however in Gentoo I can't get it to work so far. Nothing happens when I hit those keys, like in this thread:Missing glyphs in Terminus font, how to setup a fallback font ? But in this case I know terminus supports those characters in at least some of its versions, since it's works in Debian. So what I want is to find out how to see and choose which of the many different terminus font files is being used. I set the font in the same way on both Debian and Gentoo, using URxvt*font: xft:terminus:size=xx in .Xdefaults. Both systems use en_US.UTF-8 as default locale.

Dec 6, 2010I have a DVD-R made by a friend who has found no fault. It will not play in my Panasonic DVD-recorder, and when I put the disc into the computer optical drive it does not appear in the places list, though the drive is mounted. I can display the video using Gnome Mplayer (but no other application) and I can copy to ISO using Gnomebaker, but this creates another unreadable disc. Gnomebaker finds a bad sector 120832 at 41% of the disc. If I could read the VOB files on the disk I might be able to make a playable copy, but it baffles me that Nautilus cannot read the disc.
View 6 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Missing Glyphs In Terminus Font - Setup A Fallback Font?
Jul 8, 2010Most of my work happens in a terminal, so I need a clear, readable font. I've settled a while ago on Terminus [URL]..., which works wonders for me. I added XTerm*faceName : Terminus in my ~/.Xdefaults, and I do get the Terminus font. Unfortunately, a lot of Unicode glyphs are missing (mathematical symbols, greek and hebrew letters), displaying as little square blocks instead.
If I remove the faceName entry, the default configuration seems able to display most of the glyphs (including math, greek, hebrew, runic, and whatever else), but the default font is much harder to read.
A google search hints that it should be possible to use Terminus as the default font, and fallback to (an)other one(s) for missing glyphs, but provides no further explanation. I've seen documentation that recommends Bitstream Vera Sans as a fallback, but it lacks the glyphs I need too; I don't know how to identify the default font used by xterm either, I had a look at /usr/share/X11/app-defaults/XTerm, but all I can find are generic references to old pre-fontconfig font names.
Using Gentoo Linux, fontconfig and xterm are up to date, USEs trutype and unicode enabled, X.Org server 1.6.
Edit: I alternate between Ratpoison, Awesome and XMonad, without a desktop environment.

Feb 15, 2010I was having an annoying problem with icons on my KDE desktop moving out of place, even if the icons were locked. I blamed KDE, but I don't have the knowledge or experience to guess what part of KDE was the problem, so I reinstalled most or all of KDE. That did indeed solve the problem, but it caused two minor new "problems." Both I can ignore, but one I should probably fix. One, the MEPIS splash screen was replaced by a Debian splash screen. Two, on the session menu, root became invisible so I can no longer select it with the mouse; I can only type it in (which I don't mind doing).

General :: Fedora 15 Grub2 Graphical Menu "Invisible" Yet There?
Aug 11, 2011I have Fedora 15 x64 with Gnome-shell installed on a Toshiba Satelite L505 Laptop alongside Windows 7, and Ubuntu 11.04. Fedora was the last installation so it currently has the controls of the grub installation which is what I was going for. I upgraded to Grub2 (1.98 and then some). I did some hunting and found this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1534689I followed the instructions to the T (or atleast I thought I did) for writing and installing the demo theme on "Fedora 14" which worked without errors on 15.When I rebooted I got:Grub yadayadafor about 1.5 seconds and then the background image for the theme showed up but no menu! I tried shift & Esc, nothing. I pressed enter and it booted fedora 15. this is where i got my first bright idea (First i should mention that the loading box images showed up after i hit enter but still no text). I rebooted again (knowing the order of what the grub menu would be if it were visible) and this time i hit the down arrow 5 times then hit enter, sure enough, and it booted windows. So I can interact with the menu but not "see" it.

Jul 11, 2010An oddball problem has cropped up. When I installed Fedora 13 I listed an external USB HDD to mount at start up. when I log in to my account, the first account that was set up during install, the USB drive has links on the desktop, and it shows up in the file system when I click "Computer." The USB external HDD is completely invisible to the other accounts. If I switch off it's power, wait, and then switch it back on, It mounts back up, but is still invisible to all accounts except mine. What did I do wrong, and how do I give all acounts access to that drive?

Feb 28, 2011I've just installed Ubuntu 10.10 and the cursor is white on a white background. I tried changing it using the Appearance settings and only the size changed, not the colour.
Can anyone explain why this is happening, and how to change the cursor so that it is visible. Have never had this trouble with any other Linux distro, so it's not hardware.

View 6 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Invisible Mouse In 11.5 ATI HD5830?
May 20, 2011Installed 32 bit on dual core intel with no problem.Booted up into attactive GUI, no issues. *However*, the mouse pointer is invisible. The system is unusable, I can hardly launch an app, or know how to open a xterm.I managed to download .run drivers from ATI/AMD website. This ran a script for a bit then terminated, no idea if it was successful or not. Still no mouse.
Google search revealed that this is repeating issue with Ubuntu installs, could not get any meaningfull help other than to modify some x file so that mouse appears when I press CTRL. I can't even get to launch an app...takes 5 mins to "line up" the mouse.I must say I'm quite suprised to have this problem, as its stock intel, and the HD5830 is a decent and popular mid range graphics card about a year old.

So I tried upgrading using bootable ubuntu 11.04 pendrive.After the upgrade when i tried to boot into 11.04, the display went very dim (almost invisible). It happens just after I select ubuntu from grub menu. I tried booting into recovery mode, tty mode but nothing was visible.Although everything works. I was able to open terminal using Ctrl+Alt+T which was slighly visible and shut down using halt command though I couldn't see it.

View 6 Replies View RelatedOpenSUSE Network :: 11.4: Strange Nfs V4 - Invisible Files?
Mar 11, 2011Yesterday I installed 11.4. First it did run very nice but now I am facing an odd problem: I am mounting on my new 11.4 box a folder via nfsv4 from an opensuse 11.2 server (updated to kernel 2.6.33.6).
I got some folders where the 11.4 cannot see files which are defenitely present on the server. They are completely invisible to the client! In one particular case I have eg. 108 files in the folder on the server, but the 11.4 box only sees 107. One is missing. It does not show up using ls and I also can't access it blindly using eg. cat. The file does not differ from all the others in that folder regarding permissions/ownership/acls etc. It is also not big (1728 bytes) nor is it a special file (link/socket etc.just a plain C header file). That single file is just not visible when mounting with nfsv4 on the 11.4 box. When mounting it with nfs3 instead the file is visible. But for obvious reasons I want to stick with nfsv4.
I restarted all nfs related daemons on both the server and the client a couple of times but it does not make any difference. I also cannot find any problems in any log files on the server or client up to now. I rebooted the client but not the server (I can't do that right now as it is in heavy production).
I do not see these problems with other opensuse boxes running 11.0/11.2 or 11.3 in my network. They can see/access these files quite nicely. This is really strange. Does any have a clue what is going on here or how I can narrow that problem down?
Ubuntu Multimedia :: World's First Invisible Ipod?
Apr 25, 2010i'm being slightly sarcastic i think it's safe to say i'm doing something wrong but i'm just at a loss as to what. as it stands banshee - doesn't recognise ipod songbird - doesn't handle album art and overwrites ALL existing art floola - doesn't support new itunes database rhythmbox - doesn't handle album art hipo - doesn't find ipod gtkpod - doesn't find ipod yamipod - doesn't handle album art
so it's not entirely invisible, i will confess i've spent the past 2 hours trying to work out why banshee, hipo and gtkpod all don't see the ipod when songbird, rhythmbox and yamipod do. podsleuth tells me it can't find any ipods, even on a rescan - when i've got the ipod connected. if i select "properties" on the Ipod when it's connected, i get this ..[URL].. it's frustrating because it drives me back to windows every time so i can use sharepod again, and invariably start all over again re-doing all the album art - again.
i've got a backup of all my music that i took directly from the ipod - it's on a seperate hard drive, so i can only hope and pray that sharepod writes out the album art as well.
Ubuntu Multimedia :: MiniDLNA And The Invisible Directories ?
May 26, 2010I've been using a headless ubuntu machine for a few months now to torrent stuff and serve it up to my PS3 using MiniDLNA.
Everything was working fine until this morning when i decided the list of stuff in ~/Movies/Torrents was too long. I opened up the directory on my Mac (shared over the network using avahi and netatalk so my Mac thinks it's another Mac) and made some folders for shows in there. I moved the files into them and turned on my PS3. It was a bloodbath, only one of the new folders is seen by the PS3. It still sees folders that were created by transmission.
I changed the permissions to 777 for everything (had to to move folders around) and I also gave the new folders to my transmission user and group lest that was the problem (it wasn't).
Below is a screenshot of $ls -l ~/Movies/Torrents I have marked the ones that show up on the PS3. Only 'Lost' was made today out of the ones it sees. [url]
It's Ubuntu 9.10.
Ubuntu :: Invisible Fonts And No Video On Minitube?
Sep 4, 2010I have been having some trouble with packet tracer 5.3 and minitube. I am a long time linux user and i am not new to linux but i have been struggling to figure out why the following problems occur. When i have Desktop Effects active (compiz), packet tracer is not showing any fonts (they are see through to my wallpaper) and some of the panels appear... well, wired and see throughish.
Also i have had issues with minitube. Believing the issue with packet tracer was my NVIDIA drivers i updated my NVIDIA drivers to version 256.52. I at one point had the generic display drivr running and found that minitube now worked. Previously the video didn't display. Packet Tracer has allways worked without compiz running and it seems that minitube wont run with NVIDIA drivers. I cant understand why. Is this my NVIDIA drivers or is there another explanation?
I am running Ubuntu 10.04 with kernel 2.6.32-24-generic and nvidia drivers 256.52 with a GeForce 9500 GT. Note i am a networking student and i have a diploma in software Development so i consider myself pretty handy in linux. This is one of a few problems i havent beenable to fix myself or with google. I have attached a screenshot of the problem to show exactly whats going on.
Ubuntu :: Firefox Fonts Invisible After Upgrade?
Sep 11, 2010I just upgraded a laptop from an older version of Ubuntu to 10.04.1 LTS, which included an upgrade of firefox to ver. 3.6.9. Many pages in firefox now display only some of the text, although if I hilight where the text should be I get hilighted areas and if I copy and paste them into an editor the text shows up. Other pages display normally.
An example of this is [URL] where the "Welcome to the Ubuntu Forums ..." (un-logged in) paragraph is invisible although the off-white box which should contain this text is there. A few things I've tried and discovered:
* SeaMonkey doesn't have this problem (I'm using it to write this).
* If I un-check "Allow pages to choose their own fonts", the invisible text shows up with locally spec'd fonts. Specifying local font colors makes no difference.
* Switching users makes no difference.
* I've tried re-installing a large number of ttf fonts plus fontconfig, which makes no difference.
* This problem wasn't there before the upgrade.
Ubuntu :: Mouse Cursor Invisible After Upgrade?
Oct 11, 2010Just upgraded to 10.10, which went smoothly except for the fact that my mouse pointer is now gone. I can track where it is by ticking on the function that shows its location when you press control, but otherwise it's invisible (though technically functioning - I can still click on things and move it about).
I've attempted to change the look of the mouse under theme in the hopes that it might be one that doesn't work, but after trying all of the selections I still haven't found one that will display.

View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Text In Some Applications Is Missing Or Invisible
May 23, 2011I'm finding that some applications (2 thus far) are not properly displaying text. I first noticed it in Firefox, where it appears that NO text is being rendered because the search and "feeling lucky" buttons are both about 1.5 characters wide and blank inside. I'll include screen-caps below to exemplify what I mean. In addition to Firefox, I just tonight noticed that my PDF reader is apparently rendering all text in white (even though the same PDF opens up fine with black text on my Windows desktop computer). For the PDF's, I can see that there is text there because I can do a Ctrl+A and copy, and then when I paste it into gedit I can see all the text.
Some background: I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 32-bit w/gnome. The first thing I did after installing Ubuntu was to install the BlackBuntu theme by copying appropriate files from /usr/share/ from the BlackBuntu live USB.
What I've tried: I've uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox a couple of times, but ultimately I just installed Chromium which is working fine and is not experiencing the same issue that Firefox is. I've tried changing my theme back to default, changing all the fonts (under Appearance Preferences), and nothing is fixing this. I'm about to just do a full reinstall of the OS, paying careful attention to at exactly what point in my process everything gets screwed up, but I'm hoping that someone has an idea that I can try before I have to reinstall the system.

View 8 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Invisible Windows In Wine - Programs Never Appear
Aug 10, 2010I finally got around to installing Linux on my laptop the other day, and I'm trying to use Wine to run some windows apps. Problem is, my programs never appear. They DO start - I can see them in 'ps -e' as well as Gnome System Monitor. Yet the window never appears. It's not just one program either; first I tried running Steam from the terminal and I can tell that it successfully launches. The window just doesn't get drawn. All other windows become unfocused when it launches and I'm even able to type in my password to log in (I know this because after I hit enter the "Steam Login" entry disappears from the taskbar and the "Steam" entry appears in it's place) but no Steam related windows ever appear.
The second program I've been trying to emulate is EVE Online. Similar thing happens: The EVE splash screen DOES appear, along with it's entry in the taskbar, but when it closes, the EVE client never becomes visible - no taskbar entry this time either. Again, I can see it running in ps -e or System Monitor, and one of my CPUs cores becomes maxed out, so I know it's running. Also, I just noticed that I can right click Steam's invisible entry in the tray and bring up the context menu, but nothing more than that. I've heard of fonts being invisible/incorrect under Wine, but not the entire program! I've googled and tried running things in compatibility mode for various versions of windows, but have had no progress. What am I missing?
