Ubuntu Installation :: 10.10 (64bit) Setup Missing Fonts
Oct 11, 2010
I'm trying to install Ubuntu 10.10 64 Bit but when the Setup loads, the fonts are missing, instead I see a lot of squares [][][][][] [][] [] [][][] and I can't continue because I can't read anything, I try to change language at boot menu but I can't solve it. Also I have tried to install it into a VirtualBox, but the problem is still there. I have installed Ubuntu 10.04 64 Bit and it works perfect, I downloaded the ISO today, this is the finale release. What can I do?
This is my screenshot:

The problem after couple installations (10.10 --> 10.04 --> 10.10 --> 10.04-3) is that system goes to "busybox" after complaining about missing root device. I already have come to conclusion that this problem could be solved by telling the system that the root device is at sda1. However, I'm not able to start grub (by pressing "ESC") at boot before problems start. I'm able to start live-cd and I tried to install "over" the old one (same partitions without format, same username). No luck.
And in the busybox /proc/modules is empty for example. And the grub has worked with previous installations.

I've managed to get a hold of a 160GB drive, which I hope to use as my system drive for a server that I'm setting up. This may be the tip of the iceberg (as it tends to be with me for some reason), but this is what's happening:
I got the drive, which has been used before but has been secure erased, and it's been sea tool-ed so is therefore as good as new. It shows up fine in the BIOS, and GParted discovers it straight away. I then split it into 3 partitions:
A ~10GB system partition - sdd1
A ~130GB storage partition - sdd2
A ~4GB swap partition - sdd3
GParted performs all actions straight away with no issues.
After partitioning, fdisk -l reports the following:
Code:
Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x2bd2c32a
[Code]....
I've then gone to install Ubuntu. I go through all the major steps, up to where it asks you where you want to install Ubuntu... at which point sdd just doesn't show up at all. It shows sda, sdb and sdc fine, but sdd is nowhere to be seen.
Two things strike me as odd (although I suppose understandable) - Firstly, every partition in sdd mounts fine, but is owned by root. Secondly, each partition has a folder called 'lost+found' with varying amounts of data. There's 662.3MB in the 10GB partition's lost+found folder, and 6.9GB in the 130GB's folder.

Today I got update notification. I type in terminal yum update, and get this error: Quote: Error: Missing Dependency: libnetfilter_conntrack.so.1()(64bit) is needed by package iptstate-2.2.1-5.fc11.x86_64 (installed) You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: package-cleanup --problems package-cleanup --dupes rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
I removed iptstate.x86_64, again run yum update, and than, ibnetfilter_conntrack got installed. I tried to install iptstate.x86_64 again, but i get Quote:

I'm using Fedora 13beta and KDE on x86_64 arch.
gtk 32-bit apps (eg: acroread, skype) have ugly fonts in their menus.
gtk 64-bit apps look great (and similar to qt apps).
The following packages are already installed:
gtk2-2.20.0-1.fc13.i686
gtk2-engines-2.20.0-1.fc13.i686
qtcurve-gtk2-1.3.0-1.fc13.i686

I have so far used reiserfs formatting both in my previous debian (sarge, etch and lenny) and opensuse (SLED10, opensuse-10.2,10.3 &11.3) and was very happy. When last month I installed debian squeeze I missed reiserfs (or did I miss noticing it?) Though Ext3 is giving me no trouble. I would love to have reiserfs. Is it now possible to change the filesystems without much trouble.

I installed texLive2009 from the repository, with extra-fonts, arabic and Hebrew package, xetex and culmus. When I try to run latex (or pdflatex or xetex) I get an error message about missing Hebrew fonts jerus10 and deads10.

After upgrading to CentOS 5.3, emacs is unable to locate its default font. (I've been able to supply emacs with a command-line or config-file link to a different installed font, but that's a workaround, not a solution.) I'm not sure if this is a packaging error, an error in our repository configuration, or something else. Below I've inserted some info that seems relevant. I'd be happy to post other information as requested. I've also attached a probably unnecessary screenshot of emacs displaying little blocks instead of characters at the very bottom of this post. Here's the command-line error thrown by emacs on startup:
[Code]...
whether one of emacs's needed fonts has been moved from one package to another in the latest upgrade. Or (most likely) it's something else I haven't thought of.

I have been attempting to compile lmms on my 64 bit install of fedora 11, and have determined that I need the gcc-devel package. I cannot find it in any of the repositories. Where is it?

I have Fedora 11 installed on two different machines, one 32 bit and the other 64 bit. If I play an mp3 file in the 64 bit system---it doesn't seem to matter which player I use---then I can only start, stop, or go to the beginning or end of the selection. I can't advance the stream to some intermediate point. The slider display showing the position is greyed out. The same programs on the same file in the 32 bit system work normally and allow me to advance the position by using the mouse with the slider. This may have something to do with how gnome is configured on the two machines, but I can't figure out what is different.

I have a system with a missing or damaged kernel and I need to reinstall some software to fix it (see this thread for reference removed xen and kernel is gone). I feel fairly certain I can fix my system with the info in that thread however I don't know if this was a 32bit or 64bit system. How can I tell after using the dvd and linux rescue or does it even matter?

my update today failed, because the packages raydium and maniadrive depend on libphp5-5.2.9.so, which is provided by php-embedded, which is (apparently) not in the fedora 64bit repository There does however seem to be an i586 version...

I am a hobbyist interested in development and have recently decided to migrate from Windows to Linux and after trying out a number of distributions decided to use openSUSE. After getting somewhat more comfortable with Linux and openSUSE I decided to try and get comfortable with development on this platform.
And hence my problem: After compiling the simplest of programs (hello world) and trying to step through it with gdb I get this output:
Missing separate debuginfo for /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
Try: zypper install -C "debuginfo(buildid)=2b25d8329d1aa713a2cc61b5cb701f6f89c78022"
Missing separate debuginfo for /lib64/libc.so.6
Try: zypper install -C "debuginfo(buildid)=9b674b2caef1982db55e436bca814060e1705b7f"
As soon as I type the command start in gdb. Naturally I tried the recommended zypper downloads to no avail. Furthermore I sought out the glibc debuginfo in the software manager and found nothing which I have not already installed.
On my system are:-devel-32bit
glibc
glibc-32bit
glibc-devel
glibc
glibc-info
glibc-locale
glibc-locale-32bit
glibc-profile
glibc-profile-32bit
gdb
gdbm
gdbm-32bit
All of these are the latest version from the standard 11.3 repositories. I believe these are all the requirements I should need to not have gdb give me errors but sadly that is not the case. Lastly I am running on a 64bit version of openSUSE 11.3.

Running Fedora 12 64 bit version, when browsing the web get notifications that I need to install missing add in, flash player as it turns out. When I try to run either the install automatically or manually it fails when it is run though the installer, when I attempt to install manually I get popup notification that flash is already installed. Why OS thinks I still need to install it and how to correct this issue?

I've just installed 11.2 KDE 64bit and I'm having trouble getting CUPS setup. I have a hp5440 deskjet that is not listed but I have used another model in the past with another distro. But when I put in my username and password it doesn't take it. there is no other password. How do I set up CUPS? Can I used hplip instead?

The support unit here at uni doesn't support linux. Only Windows and Mac OS. And I can't quite figure how to get the printing to work. For windows I have to go to:
Code:
\print.plan.aau.dk I think its a samba print server. From here (on windows) I can choose which printer to use. There is an accounting system, so I need to log on with username and password. Is there a way to set this up easily in OpenSUSE 11.2 64bit KDE4?

I have had no problem installing Fedora OS on any of my Dell servers prior to this post. Anyway, I wouldn't call this a problem but recently, we bought another DELL server with Quad Core, 4GB, etc... AND this model has 2 swappable SAS Harddrives.
I wouldn't call myself an expert but then again I am not a newbie too. However, I have never setup any RAID before and now I am forced to setup RAID1 on this server. So, in a way, I am a newbie in setting up RAID
Would someone please point me in the right direction as I have no idea what I am supposed to do to setup the RAID. FYI, I will be installing Fedora 10 64bit on this server. I would appreciate if you can start from the very beginning, ie. partitioning, formatting the harddrives during OS installation, etc..

The problem relates only to the configuration of services in text mode ("setup", part of the setuptool package). The setuptool package is "setuptool-1.19.4-2.fc9.x86_64". There is no "Services configuration" menu when I start "setup". The tools listed in the setup window are:
- Authentication configuration
- Firewall configuration
- Keyboard configuration
[code].....
IMHO, the reason I don't have a services configuration tool is the missing services configuration files "98services" and/or 99"services" (or something like that) from the setuptool's configuration directory. (Please correct me if I am wrong.) Can someone please let me know what information should be in those two files, and what are the correct file names? Without them I cannot change the services on this computer. (FYI, the GUI (system-config-services) works, however, I need to run this computer in text mode.)

I'm trying to setup Flash on my Fedora 14 x86_64 machine. I originally (mistakenly) ran through the instructions for the 32-bit version (posted here [URL]). I'm now trying to complete the instructions for the 64-bit version with 32-bit wrapper. However, I run into the following error.

I just finished installing a bunch of truetype fonts. After installing them, firefox is displaying "bradybunch" font when I search google.
The font settings are all serif and sans serif in both the system fonts settings and firefox settings.
I am using ubuntu 9.10.
Any idea why this could be happening?

I have a folder with over 1500 fonts, I would like to move them to my /usr/share/fonts folder so that they can be used. Some are from Windows, some are just random extras. I've installed the msttcorefonts, but there are quite a few missing that make some wen pages look different.
How can I go about putting the fonts from my folder, into the appropriate /usr/share/fonts folder to be used? And how can I move them all? I can't drag and drop them, and mv FONT_NAME /usr/share/fonts for all of them will take a month or two. Is there a way to elevate my self to be able to just drag and drop them all? And which folder would they need to go into for them to be used in Chrome and Firefox?

I have just installed openSUSE 11.2 X86_64 on my laptop, I then used KDE to install lots of type 1 fonts for my printer. These get loaded to /usr/local/share/fonts/...These installed fonts are visible to KDE (KWRITE) and GIMP so I assume that the installation was O.K. When I start openOFFICE writer I do not see these fonts. The font selection appears to be the fonts located under /usr/share/fonts. I have not tried other ooo3 components. I assume that they are not going to see the fonts either.
I have searched google and it appears that /usr/local/share/fonts is the correct location for non-packaged fonts. Has anybody any idea what is wrong? I think I could move all the fonts to /usr/share/fonts and ooo3 would work but this seems to break the installation directory structure. I have considered symlinks but I don't like the idea of defining a font twice to Linux and creating the syslinks is more work than reinstalling the fonts if they are lost

I was trying to setup a cross-platform development environment with qt, an thus looked for the qt-sdk package I used to install on my 32-bit machine.This package appears to have been deleted from 64-bit ubuntu maverick, but I do not understand the details...
- Has this package been renamed, or is there another one in place of it?
- Is this package going to be available again in the future?
PS: I am aware that one can install the sdk by downloading the installer, but for unattended install I prefer the apt package...

I have just completed the installation of 11.2 on a older HP Pavillon dv5115nr. Finally got everything working except for the Broadcom wireless. I have updated the firmware and I can see the AP. I have been using yast to configure the wlan device but one of the last steps it trys to perform is install smpppd. Even when hooked up via eth0 it can't find this program.
