From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020809 Description of problem: at startup (or when running manually) keytable that runs setsysfont i have an error like: ]# setsysfont putfont: PIO_FONT: Invalid argument when tracing it, i suppose this is due because there's no /usr/share/locale/en/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo or /usr/share/locale/en_US/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo (i suppose this, because of the strace, the error happens in the child just after trying to open both files); maybe this is a setsysfont error, not glibc? ;) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.run setsysfont and error appears 2. 3. Actual Results: error Expected Results: no error ;) Additional info: strace -f setsysfont:

Created attachment 73285 [details] my /etc/sysconfig/i18n
en libc.mo is really not needed, the messages are in english already ;) The problem is elsewhere: [pid 19692] ioctl(7, 0x4b61, 0x8056d00) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) which means it is either setfont bug, or kernel bug when handling PIO_PUTFONT ioctl, or you're running this on terminal which doesn't support changing of fonts...
ok forget about this on the following reboot it went allright *g* my system is beginning to act weirdly (i had gcc segfaulting, and X crashing today) i suppose some of my hardware is failing can't find what atm :/
