I can't seem to figure this one out.
Same problem occurs with mozilla and make xconfig..... For as far as I've seen..

Something definitly looks broke ........the lack of fonts suggests the apps are using a font which isnt available ....not sure bout the icons however , if you start the apps in a term does it give any error messages ????

Cheers
Dale.

Just one error message.. But I feel it has nothing to do with the prob..
Code:

(gedit:10521): Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtktextbuffer.c: line 334 (set_table): assertion `buffer->tag_table == NULL' failed


And about the missing fonts.. I synched my fonts with my notebook.. Which also has gentoo installed.. Did the fc-cache.. and all seemed normal..

The icons are still missing I take it ???

If so the best bet would be to find out where the app's icons are installed to and make sure they are still there , worst case senario you might be able to just copy them across from the lappy .
Also have you upgraded anything recently with different use variables ??could also be if the apps have been recently installed image support may not have been added ( ie if compiled without png,jpeg etc use variable)

Cheers
Dale.

Code:

lsof | grep gedit


fonts are still lost in the gui though they seem intact in the dirs and config files....

already did an fc-cache.. and xftcache and re-emerging stuff..

I believe the icons have perhaps something to do with gnome2..
Logically.. cause the icons are from gnome2 :D ... And the fact that some parts of gnome don't like my 2.5 kernel.. hmz.. gonna try a new kernel tomorrow.. maybe.. just maybe.. Maybe pango is screwing me sideways..

Btw: I can only run a 2.5 kernel.. and a 2.2.10 :)

Cheers

Sorry for the late response.. But nothing got foobar'd as so it seems.. Hasn't anyone seen this before..?! :(

I unmerged and re-emerged glib,gtk-1.2,gtk2, pango and libgnomeui.... Also did a re-emerge of gedit though I didn't think it would matter much..

My USE flags "X bonobo crypt cups fbcon gif gnome gtk gtkhtml imlib jpeg png tiff"

Maybe interesting to know.. But when I switch on anti-alias in fluxbox, my fonts also disappear..
Haven't searched the forum for it yet.. But i'll do so later on..

Some small update..

Code:
export GDK_USE_XFT=0


This got me my fonts back.. I wonder why my truetype fonts disappear when setting it to 1..
Could a xft.h be the culprit?

Sorry I think I spoke too soon.... It seems that this returns fonts to gtk2 apps..
But the fonts still stay away when doing:

Code:

make xconfig
// And when doing..
xterm -fa "Andale mono"

Items that use Xftconfig...

hmz.. :?

If you've got any idea.. Or tip maybe... please post..

Have you emerged the masked gdkxft patch for gtk 1 apps???
It is masked for a reason apparently ...
If you check the package.mask file youll see that it has been masked due to it breaking things ....
If it has been emerged try unmerging it and rebuilding xft etc , if that doesnt work you may have to reemerge stuff starting with X ....

Cheers
Dale.

Didn't emerge gdkxft.. When I heard about it, I also heard about a possible bug or something..

It seems that you're describing my fear.. re-emerging a lot of X, starting with X itself.... <<shiver>>

Thanks for your help so far :)

No probs :)

But it does look like its related to the xft support somewhere .....
It could be worth just unmerging X xft pango and reemerging .....

Cheers
Dale.

Finally a break..

It seems that the weight element in my XF86Config causes the AA-fonts and icons to disappear..

Code:

    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       16
        Weight      5 5 6
        Modes       "1280x1024"
        Virtual     1280 1024
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection


Whereas
Code:

    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       16
        Weight      5 6 5
        Modes       "1280x1024"
        Virtual     1280 1024
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection


Restores the icons and AA-fonts.. But it screws with yellow and blue.. Giving almost every other color a nice(?) blue or yellow pattern..

Anyone got a clue?..

btw: xfree 4.2.1 with fbdev

Kris

I've seen this same problem in kde when there were still apps depending on kde 3.0 libs and kde 3.0 was removed, but I have never seen it in gnome. Maybe it's a similar problem. Have you removed older versions of gnome and there are still some old dependencies?

When commenting out the weight section it goes to default which is 5 6 5 @ depth 16, the blue/yellow effect.

I don't think it's gnome related. It has been around since the beginning.

This is rather annoying.. even a capture with fbshot seems to return a normal screen.. Though it still looks f*cked up over here..

If you want to look
