Problem with fonts on ubuntu Maverick #207

misaelnieto commented at 3:23 AM on May 9, 2011: none

Hi.

I'm getting this whenever I want to run bitcoin 32 bits on my machine:

22:21:21: Debug: ../src/gtk/settings.cpp(276): assert "font.IsOk() && wxFontEnumerator::IsValidFacename(font.GetFaceName())" failed in GetFont().

Anyone else is having this?

Same with 64 bit on Ubuntu 11.04.

Just got that error on 64 bit Ubuntu 2.6.32-32-generic

All kinds of similar errors pop up if you are running the 32-bit version on 64-bit Ubuntu, Im assuming you are all running the right version for you machines?

The 32 bit version does not run (core dump) on my machine. I just turned off the errors and the gui does seem to work.

OK. When I run the 32 bit it core dumps (can I say that any other way?). There you go.

According to your first comment, you are on a 64-bit machine, correct? When you run the 32-bit binary, it is expected that it will not work. Thus what you are saying is not a bug. My question is...when you run the proper (ie 64-bit) binary, does the same problem present itself?

I understand that running 32 bit on 64 is not a bug. The messages appear when running the 64 bit since I am only 64 bit. The messages can be suppressed by unchecking a box on the error message dialog and then hitting the continue button. The client then runs without a problem. I did install the wxwidgets from their site, but it didn't seem to include any extra fonts. I gave up on the problem since the client works fine and I can see all the text with no issues. I would classify it as a bug, but not a show stopper. Will you enter it into the bug tracking system? Or is there such a system?

You are on the bug-tracking system. Anyway, sorry for the confusion, just wanted to make sure as it was not clear from the first couple of posts. Can you give any more info on your system, as I dont see this error on a clean Ubuntu LiveCD. Are you running Kubuntu or some other flavor, what packages might you have removed that were in the default install?

I am running Lucid, but have not really removed a lot of packages. Maybe the fonts will be available in Maverick or Natty.

WX is now deprecated. Please update this thread if the problem persists in the QT build.
