Bug#295517: gtkfontsel: Gdk error on some truetype fonts
Package: gtkfontsel Version: 1.1-6 Severity: normal I'm sure that this is really a bug in the gtk libraries, or in the X server, and not in gtkfontsel. But I don't know how to pin point this, so I'm reporting it here first. Hopefully you can forward it to the appropriate maintainers. When attempting to display the bitstream vera sans, or it appears any truetype font, gtkfontsel exits with the following message: Gdk-ERROR **: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) serial 1104 error_code 2 request_code 45 minor_code 0 Note that I'm using the X server's builtin truetype support, and not a font server.

This might point to a missing or invalid /dev/console. (At least with udev-managed devices that's not a completely unlikely theory.) I was a bit worried about this message when I diffed my initrd-2.6.6 and initrd.2.6.8 File initrd-2.6.6/dev/console is a character special file while file initrd-2.6.8/dev/console is a character special file Looking in detail I see: shoreditch.root /tmp 2# ls -l initrd-2.6.6/dev/console crw-rw 1 root root 5, 1 Jan 1 1970 initrd-2.6.6/dev/console shoreditch.root /tmp 2# ls -l initrd-2.6.8/dev/console crw--- 1 root tty 5, 1 Jan 1 1970 initrd-2.6.8/dev/console So the permissions are different, but I can't imagine that would make any difference at this stage of the bootstrap, which must surely be running with a uid of root. Of course udev may be overwriting this and screwing it up, since I think that 2.6.6 didn't have udev, while 2.6.8 does - is that right? Is there anything that I could add to the boot command line to control udev, or to help diagnose the problem? Nigel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

No, this is the normal PC partitioning scheme and the root partition can be on any of the partitions. The extended partition has historical reasons: the original PC partition table layout allowed only four (primary) partitions. To be able to address more than four, the so-called extended partition was invented, which is in principle a normal partition with an additional sub-partitiontable and sub-partitions (logical drives) inside the partition. For the Linux kernel it does not make a difference whether to use a primary partition or a logical drive. Thanks Karsten, and hi btw!

Looks like some driver went missing from this initrd. This would be

Hi Thiemo
Hmm - having to learn more about Linux bootstrapping than I'd like :-).
I tried adding these lines
ide_generic
ide_disk
ata_piix
sg
sd_mod
to /etc/mkinitrd/modules as suggested by someone on the initrd-tools
bugs page, and rebuilt my initrd image. Didn't help.
I then added some debug echos to the linuxrc and init scripts in
/usr/share/initrd-tools and rebuilt again. Interestingly there's no
change. It doesn't even seem to get as far as running the linuxrc script
in the first place. Comparing my working 2.6.6 and 2.6.8 initrd image,
there don't seem to be too many differences, but I'll attach the output
below. I'm slightly concerned about the warning about /dev/console, and
that modprobe.conf and modprobe.d have moved around.
I also wonder if the fact that my Linux root partition (hda5) is inside
an extended partition (see my original report) could that be causing a
problem for the kernel?
Thanks
Nigel
