I can run mythfrontend, and sometimes, after running it, I can run mythtv-setup.real I also the setup run immediately after chaning my desktop theme to human.

If you disable dri or switch to vesa, does it persist? Yes it does. I disabled dri by adding Option DRI off to my xorg.conf file. mythtv fonts are back! I'm slightly confused though as glxinfo shows direct rendering: Yes. May be I'm confusing what the dri option actually is. The other thing to note is that adding this option has also fix another problem I was considering reporting; that scrolling in gnome-terminals and firefox (at least) is very slow. With dri off, both are restored to normal scrolling rates.

OK, so it appears that's a separate issue then. I fixed the software rastersizer, but the one that your graphics card is using is still broke. Could you by chance try with mesa 7.4?

Re: [Bug 341898] Re: Mythtv frontend does not display any fonts
So from what I can gather this is the visual that is getting selected when failing at least with vesa (with the patches applied): 0x3b 32 tc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 8 0 24 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 None When successful with vesa (without the patches applied) 0x21 24 tc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 8 0 24 8 0 0 0 0 0 0 None is the visual selected. That first hexadecimal number is the VisualID which is represented internally as a long integer. It appears that this value is set internally in QT by querying the environment, but it's not much clearer beyond that. -- Mythtv frontend does not display any fonts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/341898 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The program hangs there and my desktop is unresponsive. When I hit ESC, the screen changes to a full screen grey box with a black central box.

I'm not sure if there are any other QT based apps having similar issues. I seem to doubt it's the fact that myth was coded a particular way to avoid an issue as it explicitly is happening at normal QT show calls. It's probably that myth's usage of the QT widgets is a bit different than other applications and uncovering a problem in that fashion. -- Mythtv frontend does not display any fonts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/341898 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 341898] Re: Mythtv frontend does not display any fonts
OK, so some basic sleuthing led me a few data points that will be useful in helping to debug this. I took a use case of running mythtv-setup on a fglrx/jaunty install no problem. I then spun up a6 in virtualbox( using vesa ), and tried to run that same functional mythtv-setup X forwarded on the virtualbox X instance. Problem occurs. So here's what you can take from that: 1) This *does NOT* happen on fglrx or nvidia closed source modules. 2) This *does* happen on on vesa We've at least got a use case for reproducing. Live disks do it reliably when using vesa. I went a little further and started spewing printf's all over mythtv code to figure out when the first BadMatch shows up. Around line ~612 of mythmainwindow.cpp, there is a show() call. As soon as this call is executed the first BadMatch comes up. It's not clear if the other X errors are caused by show() calls as well. show() is inherited from the parent class of MythMainWindow, QWidget. That means that this bug actually lies somewhere in QT and it's interface to X. This wouldn't be too much of a surprise considering it hasn't changed at all since Intrepid, and there quite possibly has been X changes in Jaunty. ** Also affects: qt-x11-free (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Mythtv frontend does not display any fonts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/341898 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to qt-x11-free in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

I just tried an experiment that might be useful. My X31 laptop running Jaunty does not display the mythfrontend fonts.

I've further narrowed down when the problem was introduced by using historical builds and upgrading small subsets of packages. The package that caused it to break was xserver-xorg-core. The last functional version was 1:1.5.99.902-0ubuntu7. It first broke at 2:1.6.0-0ubuntu1.

[Bug 341898] Re: Mythtv frontend does not display any fonts
I have Ubuntu 9.04 Alpha 6 and get a black rectangular box when I try to run MythTV. After reading through the code after trying to run the backend setup of mythtv, it seems to me like this could be due to the theme directory not having a correct link. The error codes told me it could not find any themes in /home/htpc/.mythtv/themes/Mythbuntu-8.04 First, I have ubuntu 9.04. Second, there is no such directory. I did clean installs and no new themes. I am also running ATI Radeon 9000 card which seems to run fine. Could this be the same issue with you guys?

[Bug 341898] Re: Mythtv frontend does not display any fonts
Hi Ollie, Good call, I've not seen that report as the X Errors fill my shell buffer so badly I can't scroll back. Themes are in /usr/share/mythtv/themes, so going on your report I did an ln -s /usr/share/mythtv/themes ./ into my .mythtv directory in my home. Sadly this did not resolve the problem. Again I have run a dist-upgrade (0900CET, 20th March 2009), and the issue remains. Considering this bug seems to affect both ATI and Nvidia cards, it must be something between X and Myth I think. I am deeply disappointed no-one has bothered to register this as a serious bug so far, as the knock-on will have impact on Mythbuntu and anyone using Myth on Jaunty. I will keep trying to find a solution, but will be away for the weekend so time will be limited there. -- Mythtv frontend does not display any fonts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/341898 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

There are a few drivers for ATI kit. The open drivers are the radeon drivers, then the ATI closed binaries are fglrx.

Based on feedback from Mario Limonciello on my duplicate bug report, it seems the ATI drivers are at fault. I was under the impression (based on the Jaunty release notes) that it was just the ATI Binary fglrx drivers that were at fault, but it seems the open source radeon driver might be hosed as well.
