Finally there is someone here with a positive attitude and a WILLINGNESS to help.
@Fabio: thank you and here is the procedure to recreate the issue: 1) download this template file: wget http://www.latextemplates.com/templates/theses/1/thesis_1.zip 2) unzip it unzip thesis_1.zip 3) open the .tex file: texmaker main.tex 4) press F1 (quick build) in texmaker 5) hangs on "process started" where the "busy status" icon keeps turning around 6) if I avoid using F1 and press F7 instead, the PDF output is displayed. It only hangs when pressing F1, not when pressing F7. Texmaker 3.4 compilation options in texmaker configuration panel: latex -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode %.tex pdflatex -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode %.tex Quick Build command option: pdflatex + view pdf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1175539 Title: texmaker 3.4 hangs on message "Process started" when trying to build a .tex document in Ubuntu 13.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texmaker/+bug/1175539/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
