Stock test2 upgrade, or did it start at test1 and then get upgraded? Sorry, my 1st bugzilla report. Fresh install from the internet. I did not have FC5 installed prior to t2. I run the updater daily. Current to (1-27-06) Has failed since my initial install which was about 2 days after the t2 release. I am not aware of any t2 update causing this. What happens if you, as root, run: chkfontpath --list | grep /usr | awk -F ':' '{ print $2 }'| while read foo ; do rm -f $foo/fonts.{dir,scale} done service xfs restart and then restart your X server? I'm getting the exact same problem, so I followed the steps in Comment #3 and got Failed to start the X server (your graphical interface). It is likely that it is not set up correctly. Would you like to view the X server ouptut to diagnose the problem? Executing mkfontscale . mkfontdir . in the /usr/share/X11/fonts/misc dir allows the X server to start again. It looks like these commands are in the xfs script - but did not get called. fc5t2 is up to date as of 1/31/06 Here is some additional information [root@localhost ~]# chkfontpath --list Current directories in font path: 1: /usr/share/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled 2: /usr/share/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled 3: /usr/share/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled 4: /usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1 5: /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1 6: [root@localhost ~]# ls -l /usr/share/X11/fonts/ total 28 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jan 29 17:04 encodings drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 8192 Jan 31 10:39 misc drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 29 17:00 util gnucash still generates the same message Created attachment 123921 [details]
slightly modified xfs script
Does this xfs script make things better?
X did come back up on its on this time, but gnucash still dies with the same message. Hm,ok. What font packages do you have installed? [root@localhost ~]# rpm -qa | grep -i font ghostscript-fonts-5.50-13.1 bitmap-fonts-0.3-5.1 fontconfig-2.3.93.cvs20060124-1 tetex-fonts-3.0-16 libfontenc-1.0.1-1 xorg-x11-fonts-base-7.0-1 bitstream-vera-fonts-1.10-5.1 chkfontpath-1.10.0-4.1 libXfont-1.0.0-2 libXfontcache-1.0.1-1 urw-fonts-2.3-6.1 xorg-x11-font-utils-1.0.1-1 Ah, ok. I suspect installing xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi fixes it? Make that xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-75dpi. This has been fixed in the comps file, so installs of test3 or FC5 final should have this taken care of. xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi allowed gnucash to start, but with empty boxes for letters. xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-75dpi worked! |
