Hi I have the same problem with icons when I build kde plasma.Some icons
are missing after compilation and first run. I load icon theme e.g.papyrus
from system settings. Anyway Plasma works very well in blfs 8 thanks to all
of you.  Riccardo

Subject: [blfs-support] Testing OpenJDK Problem
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed

In BLFS systemd version 8.0, I'm trying to test JVM in OpenJDK-1.8.0.121
using the method shown in the BLFS book, where Xvfb is used.

The last of the series of commands it:

xhost +

which returns the error:

xhost: unable to open display ":20"

I've run through each command line individually to see if they execute
properly -- no issues until the last one.

I've rebooted the machine and recompiled OpenJDK, with the same result.

Could there be some kind of authorization problem with X? I found a
reference on the Net to such a problem from 2008, which was fixed by
messing with the /etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config, but there's no such file on my
machine, nor any reference in the BLFS book to such an animal.

After executing all the command lines I tried to see if Xvfb and twm
were running, so:

ps -a | grep -i xvfb

Returned nothing.

ps -a | grep -i twm

Returned a single instance of twm running in tty2, as expected, since I
started twm in Console 2.

Ideas? Probably something simple.

Thank you very much, I think latex works as I expected for now, the but
next time I build it I will take care with `ldconfig`, just to clarify I
was trying to build both the 2016 version then the 2017 version with both I
have the same problem, and of course I (re)run a couple of times because
error so probably there was other mistake from my part.

Will continue with other packages, thank you again for your time

Looks like Xvfb did not start. Did you have a look at the "Xvfb.out" file?

Also, do you have a file Xvfb.pid?

Same questions of course for twm.out and twm.pid...

As you may have seen, there are no double ampersand (&&) in that sequence of
commands. They can't be used here, because they break the behavior of the
single ampersand (&).

That's all I can say now...

All the icon themes should be identified as runtime dependencies,
shouldn't they?  (I've just finished building my ~430 packages for 7.10,
and am only now trying to work on "appearance" issues in bare fluxbox,
deciding on things like icons and themes and hoping it's not too late.
Firefox is also missing a few icons.)

Icons should all be runtime.  I can't think of a reason why they wouldn't
be.  It really does not matter whether they are done before or after the
individual packages.

I've run into the missing icons issue too.  It does depend on the theme to
some extent.  The easy thing to do is to just add all the icon packages.
