I tested Mythtv frontend on my desktop system running a Jaunty Alpha 6 live CD and have the same problem, no fonts are displayed. This machine has an no common hardware with by laptop.
Steps to reproduce: 1) Boot from the live CD. 2) Enable Extra software sources. 3) Install sux and mythtv-frontend packages 4) dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-common (as it fails to install properly - will raise a new bug report). 5) Run "mythtvfrontend --service" and accept to be added as a new mythtv user (don't logout though) 6) Start a new shell using "sux - ubuntu" so the group changes take effect. 7) Run "mythtvfrontend --service" Expected behaviour, get the configuration options. Full screen, text on blue background. Actual behaviour, full screen blocks of colour but no text. -- Mythtv frontend does not display any fonts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/341898 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
