Software :: Name Of The Default Emacs Font
Jul 4, 2010I'm using ubuntu 9.04. I use emacs for almost everything. I used emacs that I compiled from the source on my laptop. I liked the default font that came with it. So I never cared about the font. For some reasons I have to switch to another laptop where emacs is installed from the package. I donot want to go through compiling the source again. I would like to know what is name of the default font in emacs. I donot like the default font that comes with the ubuntu package.
The font I'm talking about is the font that is usually found in most emacs written documents. Similar to this webpage (web browsers might render this differently) . And also this webpage. describing font without knowing the name is difficult . The second link gives a better idea. (Hopefully :-))
Also I read about cse-huji-default-font but M-x describe-variable says it can not find the variable. (Is this related to my problem??)
what the default font of emacs is how to set it.
General :: Setting Default Font In Emacs 23.2.1?
Apr 2, 2011I'm using emacs 23.2.1 with quack on Linux and trying to set my default typeface to Inconsolata Medium 13. It is installed on my system (debian sid) and can be set manually per buffer in emacs. However, I would like it to be used throughout and by default. My suspicion is that quack's mode is somehow conflicting.
I've searched a good deal looking for information on font customization in emacs. Although there is documentation and examples out there, I've found them fairly incoherent when taken together and nothing specifically addressing this issue. Here is my .emacs
set-default-font "Inconsolata-13")
Turn on visible-bell, get rid of beeps
setq visible-bell t)
Hilight the selected region
setq transient-mark-mode t)

View 1 Replies View RelatedDebian :: Emacs Font Selection Error In Jessie
Jul 15, 2015I just upgraded my system from wheezy to jessie. For the most part, the upgrade was painless, but there's one bit of weirdness that I can't seem to fix on my own.
In my .Xdefaults, I set the font for Emacs with this line:
Code: Select allEmacs.font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
When I do this, however. the font that appears in Emacs is not any misc-fixed font. See the following image for what Emacs displays. The window for xfontsel shows what font it should be selecting.
Note that both emacs23 and emacs24 (both Debian packages) exhibit this behavior. I also see it with an installation of emacs24 that I compiled myself.
If I use xlsfonts to see what's available matching this pattern, four choices are presented:
Code: Select all$ xlsfonts | grep 'misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-.*-iso8859-1$'
-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-100-100-100-c-70-iso8859-1
-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-100-100-100-c-80-iso8859-1
-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-70-iso8859-1
-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-80-iso8859-1
If I change the font-spec in Emacs to specify one of the avgWidth parameters (70 or 80), then Emacs displays the correct font. Note that with this spec, Emacs's choice matches what xfontsel displays.
With avgWidth 70:
With avgWidth 80:
Why Emacs is using the wrong font family when the avgWidth is set to "*". As I understand X font strings, using "*" should make it pick either 70 or 80, but it clearly isn't doing that. A "*" worked with wheezy, so I'm assuming the upgrade changed my font configuration, but I don't know what it might have changed.
OpenSUSE :: Enhanced Zoom Desktop Doesn't Zoom
Jan 18, 2010I have installed openSUSE 11.2 in my PC. To enable compiz I have download and installed (using OneClick) the nVidia driver for my nVidia GForce 8500GT video card.I need to enable the 'Enhanced Zoom' because I'm a low vision user and I need a magnifier better than Orca.The problem is that when i try to enable it (from ccsm) there isn't any zoom... I try to press META (or Super) and scroll with wheel (SUPER + Button 4) but nothing.
I have see that if I press Super+2 (increase zoom) the mouse pointer moves to a specific screen zone but the screen will not zoom.

Fedora :: Emacs 23.1.1 Bizarre Font - Additionally All "" Characters Are Displayed As A Bizarre Horizontally Barred "W"
Dec 12, 2009Just done a yum update and emacs's fonts seem very strange. Additionally all "" characters are displayed as a bizarre horizontally barred "W". Edit: I think it's nothing to do with emacs but with the fonts update. The default fonts are now "Baemuk Gulin", by changing them (SHIFT-LEFT_MOUSE) to, eg, Arial I can display things correctly. But I think the times fonts are now missing. Very strange.
View 14 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Can't Enlarge Swap / Why Is So?
Mar 4, 2011I recently enlarged my Root and Home partitions and in the process was left with 1.69 GB of unallocated space next to Swap(see image). Not quite sure how it happened this way but for some reason I was unable to grab all the unallocated space available when enlarging either Home or Root. What I am wondering is there any reason why I couldn't enlarge Swap and thereby use up that unused 1.69 GB? Would there be any minor advantage to this? Also if I did this would it simply be a matter of booting from Live Disc and running GParted with Swap off and grabbing that space?

Jan 31, 2010I ran a program under WINE and when it terminated, suddenly lots of programs were running with tiny fonts, including Google Chrome, Unison, and PLT Scheme. I think what these programs have in common is they all use GTK. I am running Debian Linux without a Gnome desktop. As suggested on the web, I put this text in ~/.gtkrc-2.0:
style "user-font"
{
font_name="BitStreamVeraSans 14"
}
widget_class "*" style "user-font"
gtk-font-name="BitStreamVeraSans 14"
Unfortunately this change has had no discernible effect.
How can I escape the land of tiny-fonted ones?
Ubuntu :: How To Resize / Enlarge Window

General :: 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.

General :: Unable To Resize (enlarge) Partition?
Jul 2, 2011I want to increase the size of my Linux partition (yellow and highlighted in image), which is situated in an extended partition, along with my biggest partition.
When I try to select the options from any partitioning software (EASUS, Paragon, Gparted) the option to resize is not available (or can't enlarge).
For example in the Paragon Hard Disk Manager, I can't add free space before the partition, even if I first shrink the "G:" partition, then try to enlarge the one with Linux.
Do you know what's happening here? Why am I not allowed to resize the partition?
Ubuntu :: Enlarge Image Canvas Using ImageMagic
Dec 28, 2010The one thing that I can't learn to do is to expand the canvas size. So if the ratio is 3x2, I want to add extra white space to make it 3x3. If I use the -geometry function, it enlarges the image to the proportions I want, but it loses the aspect ratio.
If you turn to page 377 (or 388 in PDF) of the User Manual, under "Montage", you'll see that ImageMagic can do what I want. The thumbnails in the example image are all of different proportions but the alloted space is 1x1 for all.
However the documentation on this function is pretty bad! Does anyone know how to do this?
Ubuntu Servers :: How Do You Enlarge Raid 6 Partition
May 13, 2011I am trying to grow my array to make full use of my drives. I have a raid 6 using mdadm on my home server. The array used to consist of 6 1.5TB drives when it was created. Since then I've been replacing the 1.5TB drives with new 2TB drives. And now I have replaced the last 2 drives.
When I added the first 3 disks I did not use the whole disk for the raid partition but rather made it the same size as the 1.5 partitions. As it turns out this may have been a bad idea. (But it gave me another 3 partitions of 500GB that I turned into 1 disk using mhddfs.)
Now I'm trying to grow the array. I've been testing in a virtual enviroment on how to do it but I cannot find another method than this :
1) fail 1 disk.
2) re-partition the disk with the size of the whole disk.
3) re-add the drive as a spare.
4) start the now degraded array to let it resync.
5) wait quite a while. (aprox 5 hours)
6) start again from step 1 for the other disks.
7) use mdadm with grow command to enlarge the array
use resize2fs to fill array to max size
Now although since this is a raid 6, I keep some redundancy but I still worry about degrading the array so manny times and rebuilding the whole thing. I mean I read the thing out 3 or 4 times over doing this.

View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: By Default Pango Is Choosing AR PL UMing CN As Font To Render Japanese Text When Current Font Doesn't Have Japanese Glyphs
May 4, 2010Actually I want to log a bug but I don't really know what package to log it against. The problem is that by default Pango is choosing the AR PL UMing CN as the font to render Japanese text when the current font doesn't have Japanese glyphs. But AR PL UMing CN is a Chinese font, so Chinese glyphs for kanji characters (e.g., 覚) are displayed. This is jarring and confusing for Japanese readers.
This situation mostly arises when you have mixed English and Japanese text. Some applications (for instance Firefox) will allow you to select a font for Asian text. Thus if the text contains only Asian characters it will use the font you select, rather than what Pango would have selected. But if it is a mix of English and Japanese, you end up with the wrong glyphs.
Other environments (like gnome-terminal, or a gedit) have difficulties as well. Since the primary interface requires mono spaced roman characters you run into difficulty selecting fonts. Most Japanese fonts only have proportional roman characters. This means that if use a nice roman font and use Japanese text (for instance file names), you end up with Chinese glyphs. What I want is a mechanism that will work across all of Gnome for selecting the font I want to use for Chinese characters. That way I can choose either Japanese or Chinese glyphs.
I realize this is low priority. It only bugs me a little, but many of my Japanese colleagues are put off from using Ubuntu because they are confused by the Chinese glyphs that pop up on my screen from time to time. As I said, I'd like to file a bug, but I'm not sure against what package...

Fedora :: Upgrade To KDE 4.4 And "Configure Kmail" Displayed In The Default Font No In Console Font
Feb 25, 2010In all previous versions of KDE I had Console8x16 set as KDE font for all cases (Settings->Appearance->Fonts). After tonight upgrade, this (only!) font is not working. I can see it in font manager, I can set it in ...Appearance->Fonts, but actually remains default font. Two of about 30 attempts somehow (can not reproduce) succeeded to set "console 12" font, but it disappeared after restart.
1. What can be the problem in 4.4?
2. In /usr/share/fonts tere are 3 files named console8x16.pcf, console8x8.pcf and console9x15.pcf, but in the font list in Appearance->Fonts I can see only 2 - one named "Console" (seems to be 8x16 and "console" (8x8). File 9x15 does not appear at all. Why?
Last results of attempts: cannot use console font in part of areas, while part works OK. For example: kdevelop editor, kmail message body text works OK. But kmail other parts - does not. The most interesting is that although setting the kmail body message text to console displays the message body text correctly (with console font), but the example message in "Configure kmail" dialogue "The Quick Brown Fox Jumps Over The Lazy Dog" is displayed in the default font, as if there is no console font!
