ever since doing 'apt-get update' then 'apt-get upgrade' last night, my eterms have been broken. when i start one, the window is mapped to the screen, but my shell prompt doesn't appear. about a minute after i start the eterm, the shell prompt finally appears and all is well.
to try to debug this, i ran Eterm in gdb, interrupted while the window was hung, and spit out the frames on the stack. here's what i see: (gdb) where #0 0x4032d82e in select () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0x4023bfdc in _XlcPublicMethods () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 #2 0x401973ba in _XRead () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 #3 0x40197dc3 in _XReply () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 #4 0x40180e24 in XListFontsWithInfo () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 #5 0x401f12c2 in _Xutf8DefaultDrawImageString () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 #6 0x401f16f2 in _Xutf8DefaultDrawImageString () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 #7 0x401f1be1 in _Xutf8DefaultDrawImageString () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 #8 0x401f215b in _Xutf8DefaultDrawImageString () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 #9 0x401f25ad in destroy_fontdata () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 #10 0x401ae125 in XCreateOC () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 #11 0x401ad655 in XCreateFontSet () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 #12 0x4002e4c3 in create_fontset () from /usr/lib/libEterm-0.9.2.so #13 0x4002e66f in init_locale () from /usr/lib/libEterm-0.9.2.so #14 0x4002faf7 in init_command () from /usr/lib/libEterm-0.9.2.so #15 0x40062381 in eterm_bootstrap () from /usr/lib/libEterm-0.9.2.so #16 0x08048584 in eterm_bootstrap () #17 0x4027c17f in __libc_start_main () from /lib/libc.so.6 it seems something is going on with fonts and such...does anyone know what might be going on? thanks... -alan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
