Ubuntu :: Missing Character Set - Install Instructions (if Any) Needed Font File Name Is ARIALUNI.TTF Owned By MS
Sep 28, 2010
where to get the character set that includes this character "〪" and the install instructions (if any) Needed font file name is ARIALUNI.TTF owned by MS
A client has sent me a docx. Actually it's not the first he's sent and it always causes me some kind of problems. When I open the document (a normal boring 3 page text document) with Open Office some of the characters are replaced with little empty boxes. From context I suspect they are things like slashes and commas - but I don't know for sure.
I copy and pasted some into gedit and there they appeared as boxes with letters and numbers inside like FF04. Is there some way to find out what these symbols are? I don't need to see them or print them, I just need to know if it is a plus sign, back slash, u with umlauts, or whatever.
Well I downloaded an ATI driver, and there are some installation instructions: Launch the Terminal Application/Window and navigate to the ATI CatalystTM Proprietary Linux driver download. Enter the command sh ./ati-driver-installer-10-6-x86.x86_64.run to launch the ATI CatalystTM Proprietary Linux driver installer. The ATI CatalystTM Proprietary Linux Driver Setup dialog box is displayed.
My result: marek@marek-desktop:~$ sh ./ati-driver-installer-10-6-x86.x86_64.run sh: Can't open ./ati-driver-installer-10-6-x86.x86_64.run
Most 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.
Unfortunately far for all unicode characters can be displayed in Fedora by default, (much less than in M$ Wnd). There is a tool that aim to find and install missing fonts when an non-displayable character appears, but it starts mainly when I accidentally open non-text file in terminal and never when a web-page I open in Mozilla Firefox (or Konqueror) contains such kind of characters. So, I see a rectangle with hexadecimal number of character in it (or simply empty rectangle in case of Konqueror) and don't know if there is a easy way to see it by installing missing font automatically (or manually at last) for range of this character or a way to install complete font collection to display all unicode characters from all ranges.
I'm trying to install Alsa Player in my CentOS 5.2 using add/remove software. I get the following error:
Missing Dependency: libsndfile.so.1(libsndfile.so.1.0) is needed by package alsaplayer Missing Dependency: libjack.so.0 is needed by package alsaplayer Missing Dependency: libFLAC.so.8 is needed by package alsaplayer Missing Dependency: libsndfile.so.1 is needed by package alsaplayer Missing Dependency: libxosd.so.2 is needed by package alsaplayer Missing Dependency: libid3tag.so.0 is needed by package alsaplayer Missing Dependency: libmad.so.0 is needed by package alsaplayer
When I try to search the depencies using yum (yum search libsndfile), the result is : No Matches found.
I am currently using SUSE ENT x64 v11 SP1. While trying to install various packages I keep getting dependencies error. I tried reinstalling the rpm packages(listed below) and use various versions but seems like no matter what I try it doesn't go away.
Code: --> Missing Dependency: liby2storage.so.2()(64bit) is needed by package smis-providers-1.0.0-10.29.x86_64 (installed) Error: Missing Dependency: librpmio-4.4.so()(64bit) is needed by package libsnmp15-5.4.2.1-8.1.x86_64 (installed) Error: Missing Dependency: librpmio-4.4.so()(64bit) is needed by package kdebase4-SLED-11-25.1.x86_64 (installed) .....

I am trying to edit limits.conf, changed file permissions: sudo chmod limits.conf -rwxrwxrwx
But got this message: "Could not save the file /etc/security/limits.conf. You are trying to save the file on a read-only disk. Please check that you typed the location correctly and try again."
I followed these instructions: "copy - paste this code into terminal gedit $HOME/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/Open as root copy-paste this text into that file and push 'save' for uri in $NAUTILUS_SCRIPT_SELECTED_URIS; do gnome-sudo "gnome-open $uri" & done
now copy-paste this code into terminal chmod +x $HOME/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/Open as root
Now you can right click on the file you want to edit, select 'scripts' and say 'open as root' to let you modify it". [URL] the right click worked but the file didn't open.
I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right section. But when i start the Package Updater it get's a (Error resolving dependencies).

What do i do? I'm thinking i have to get and install/download these package's but cant find them tried regular searching the web and using Yum. Cant find any of them to install to fix this issue.
when I tried to install wine I got "Missing Dependency: wine-gecko is needed by package wine"so I looked for wine-gecko and download it but also when I tried to install it I got "Missing Dependency: wine-gecko is needed by package wine"it seems that I am in loop each package need the other what to do please?

installing on linux i try to install VLC and get [user@localhost ~]$ sudo yum install vlc Setting up Install Process Parsing package install arguments Resolving Dependencies
--> Running transaction check ---> Package vlc.i386 0:0.8.7-0.8.fc8 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: vlc-core = 0.8.7-0.8.fc8 for package: vlc [Code]...
I don't know if this is the right place to do this so I will try. I have noticed a lot of posts around the web with the same problems, so I guess this is something that is common, you think it would be fixed by now but anyways. Almost constantly when I try to install a new package with yum in my system it almost always gives me a dependency error, this is the latest one when I try to install HTOP:
Error: Missing Dependency: rtld(GNU_HASH) is needed by package htop Error: Missing Dependency: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.4) is needed by package htop
I'm trying to install Dell Openmanage, which requires sblim-sfcb.Normally this wouldn't be a problem but it requires LWP::UserAgent to be installed.However there are no RPMs for LWP::UserAgent. There are RPMs for perl-libwww-perl-5.805-1.1.1.noarch.rpm, which people say should work.However yum doesn't see anything with libwww as an option so that won't work either.Running CentOS 5.5
Note: I do have LWP::UserAgent installed via cpan, however the RPM won't compile without the actual LWP::UserAgent RPM installed.
When I run '# sudo touch newfile' my expectation was that the file would be owned by me, not by root, as my understanding of sudo is that it is giving me, the user, root priviledges but does not actually switch the user.Do I have a fundamental misunderstanding of what sudo is about?
I dual boot on separate HHDs. I have just done a fresh install with updates. I installed the restricted driver from the repositories, and I get an error message from ati catalyst (administration). Also I have "unsupported hardware" at the bottom of the screen.

Downloaded Red Eclipse 1.1 file redeclipse_1.1_all.tar.bz2 Cannot find instructions to install it on fedora 15 64.bit. Can someone point me in the right direction, or give info on how to install.
I have to create an unattended install from an USB with special instructions. Unfortunately I'm a newbie and I have no clue as to where to start. We did recieve one link to use and I still don't understand what I'm supposed to do. The link is on the CentOS home page.
I just installed openSuSE 11.2 and I am missing the font Arial and some other Windows fonts.The package liberation-fonts is installed but I remember some there where some errors during installation (could not download xyz)How can I reinstall these fonts?

I'm running slackware 13.37 and when looking through the x.org log I see that two directories are missing:
Information[ 68.572] (WW) The directory "/usr/share/fonts/local" does not exist. Information[ 68.572] Entry deleted from font path. Information[ 68.572] (WW) The directory "/usr/share/fonts/CID" does not exist.
I'm trying to jail a sftp user. All I want is for my daughter-in-law to be able to download pictures of my grandson on his step-uncle's motorcycle. But I don't want her browsing around. She's not a techie, but she's smart enough to catch on how WinSCP is looking at my files. I've set up the jail using jk_init, adding ssh, sftp, bash, netutils, basicshell, jk_lsh.
The physical root of the jail is owned by root, as are all the binaries loaded by the jk_init. The user's home directory is owned recursively by the user and is writable only by the owner. The passwd and group files are in the jailed /etc and populated by the user's lines. Shell is bash, and bash is there too. The error message must be coming from some other problem that's not notifying, but what?
