On the off chance someone else gets this error the solution was :-
I for whatever reason [2 year old system] had not set my locale in /etc/locale.gen I did this and ran locale-gen and whoosh problem has gone away. Only problem now is that I have migrated to firefox, ho hum what a choice :) stu ps. Firefox has come on a long way since last I used it. On 04/08/06, Stuart Howard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I have discovered that if I emerge the previous package opera-8.54 then the fault goes away ie. all text is displayed normally but when I return to opera 9 then the fault returns. I guess there is no point raising a bug as it will almost certainly be my system not the package. Is there a list anywhere of the "standard" fonts that are used with linux distros? [ones that the opera people would be using] running from a term gives no clue as opera does not feedback errors to it. stu On 30/07/06, Stuart Howard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Yes I have re-emerged Opera and run revdep-rebuild. > > the USE flags are : > Calculating dependencies... done! > [ebuild R ] www-client/opera-9.00 USE="spell -debug -gnome > -qt-static" 0 kB > > thanks for the reply > > stu > > On 28/07/06, Mick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Thursday 27 July 2006 23:48, Stuart Howard wrote: > > > > > I have misplaced some fonts or at least I think I have, I use Opera > > > for a browser but since the xorg migration the transfers page has no > > > text and the "progress bar" shows boxes instead of text. > > > This I presume is a font issue and probably happended during the upgrade > > > does anyone know which font it is that Opera uses and that I therefore > > > need to emerge or is it likly that I am just missing a link or > > > similar? > > > > > > Any pointers will be happily recieved > > > > Starting from the beginning, have you re-emerged Opera and have you run # > > revdep-rebuild? > > -- > > Regards, > > Mick > > > > > > > > > -- > "There are 10 types of people in this world: those who understand > binary, those who don't" > > --Unknown > -- "There are 10 types of people in this world: those who understand binary, those who don't" --Unknown
