Package: xawtv Version: 3.95.dfsg.1-8.1 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 3.5
xawtv won't start. The initial error messages that I saw: ~$ xawtv This is xawtv-3.95.dfsg.1, running on Linux/i686 (2.6.30-2-686) xinerama 0: 1024x768+0+0 /dev/video0 [v4l2]: no overlay support v4l-conf had some trouble, trying to continue anyway Warning: Cannot convert string "7x13bold" to type FontStruct Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-*-14-*-*-*-m-*-iso8859-*, -*-courier-bold-r-normal-*-14-*-*-*-m-*-iso8859-*, -gnu-unifont-bold-r-normal--16-*-*-*-c-*-*-*, -efont-biwidth-bold-r-normal--16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*, -*-*-bold-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-m-*-*-*, -*-*-bold-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-c-*-*-*, -*-*-*-*-*-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,*" to type FontSet Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-ledfixed-medium-r-*--39-*-*-*-c-*-*-*" to type FontStruct Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-*-14-*-*-*-m-*-iso8859-*, -*-courier-bold-r-normal-*-14-*-*-*-m-*-iso8859-*, -gnu-unifont-bold-r-normal--16-*-*-*-c-*-*-*, -efont-biwidth-bold-r-normal--16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*, -*-*-bold-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-m-*-*-*, -*-*-bold-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-c-*-*-*, -*-*-*-*-*-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*, *" to type FontSet Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion Oops: can't load any font ----- Judging from this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=453134 I assume that I'm missing some required font package(s). I tried installing xfonts-75dpi, and some of the errors go away, ut it still fails to start, and now I see this: ~$ xawtv This is xawtv-3.95.dfsg.1, running on Linux/i686 (2.6.30-2-686) xinerama 0: 1024x768+0+0 /dev/video0 [v4l2]: no overlay support v4l-conf had some trouble, trying to continue anyway Warning: Cannot convert string "7x13bold" to type FontStruct Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-ledfixed-medium-r-*--39-*-*-*-c-*-*-*" to type FontStruct Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion Oops: can't load any font ----- I saw this: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=357965 but installing xfs makes no difference. Incidentally, while the above errors are being displayed, the CPU usage goes to nearly %100, and stays there for several seconds. htop shows that it's the X server taking up all the CPU. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-rc5-lizzie-00402-gb6727b1 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages xawtv depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.28 Debian configuration management sy ii libasound2 1.0.21a-1 shared library for ALSA applicatio ii libc6 2.10.1-3 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libfontconfig1 2.6.0-4 generic font configuration library ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl 7.6-1 A free implementation of the OpenG ii libice6 2:1.0.5-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-15 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii liblircclient0 0.8.3-5 infra-red remote control support - ii libncurses5 5.7+20090803-2 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpng12-0 1.2.40-1 PNG library - runtime ii libsm6 2:1.1.1-1 X11 Session Management library ii libx11-6 2:1.2.2-1 X11 client-side library ii libxaw7 2:1.0.6-1 X11 Athena Widget library ii libxext6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxft2 2.1.13-3 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxinerama1 2:1.0.3-2 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxmu6 2:1.0.4-2 X11 miscellaneous utility library ii libxpm4 1:3.5.7-2 X11 pixmap library ii libxrandr2 2:1.3.0-2 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.4-2 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxt6 1:1.0.6-1 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii libxv1 2:1.0.4-1 X11 Video extension library ii libxxf86dga1 2:1.0.2-1 X11 Direct Graphics Access extensi ii libxxf86vm1 1:1.0.2-1 X11 XFree86 video mode extension l ii libzvbi0 0.2.33-1 Vertical Blanking Interval decoder ii pia 3.95.dfsg.1-8.1 movie player for xawtw ii scantv 3.95.dfsg.1-8.1 television channel-scanner ii v4l-conf 3.95.dfsg.1-8.1 tool to configure video4linux driv ii xawtv-plugins 3.95.dfsg.1-8.1 television viewer - plugins ii xutils 1:7.4+4 X Window System utility programs m ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-15 compression library - runtime xawtv recommends no packages.
