Greets. ROX-Session 0.1.16 appears to hang if it can't find the font that it's configured to use. For example, mine is configured to use the TrueType font Arial Black 8. Works fine with the local X server. Connecting using another X server (X-Win32 specifically) -- which apparently doesn't know anything about the Arial font -- ROX-Session attempts to fall back onto some default Sans font (lots and lots of msgs to stderr). OK, fine, so I try to change the ROX-Session preferences and, bingo, it hangs. Ideas? Ciao. krjw |

Opening the Options box writes so many errors to stderr that the pipe back to ROX-Session fills up and it deadlocks (can't show the errors until the write completes; can't do the write until the errors are shown)? I've changed it to send log messages from itself to stdout. See if that helps... -- Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net ta...@ec... ta...@us... |
