Hello, I am running a combination of stable/testing, with icewm the window manager. On starting the system today, I found that all the text was missing from the popup menu, from the task bar, and from the title bar of applications. XFree86.0.log has no error messages. I stopped the display manager (wdm) and started X from the console: same result, except that the console showed a long progression of lines,
IceWm: Warning: glyph not found: XX where XX was a number. Apparently something was wiped out, but I don't know what it is. I upgraded icewm, but that did not help, so I assume that something is missing from X. Fortunately, I backed up the system early in the month, and I have extra disk space, so I was able to restore the backup on a separate partition. The working system now is the same, except for applications downloaded since the backup. The ones installed yesterday, all from testing, are: upgrade of cupsys, cupsys-client, cupsys-bsd visual-tcl, itcl3 openoffice.org As it stands, I have the option of trying to fix what went wrong or installing these applications on the restored system. If someone can suggest what may have happened and whether I can fix the old system, I would be grateful. Thanks. -- Bob Parnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
