XMMS problem!

Braveheart1980 · 07-25-2004, 07:49 PM

After switching my default country ( and language ) from english to greek , although all other stuff looks and works ok , xmms plays fine BUT the whole prefrences thing is crap!Only little boxes and strange stuff instead of characters!How do i fix that anyway???

hmmm, you really screwed up.....why did you switch this to greek?

try this .... move .xmms directory in your home directory to something, say OldXmms

#mv .xmms OldXmms

and start xmms again. Check if this resolves your problem

Thanks Guru but that didn't solve my problem!Should i completely uninstall xmms and install a newer version of it?

Braveheart1980 · 07-26-2004, 03:04 AM

Well that didn't help!

PS I switched to greek cause i am greek!

perhaps you can uninstall xmms and reinstall it from the Fedora CDs itself.

i wonder if you found a solution on the xmms character problem?! 'm still trying and can't get it. maybe i should just run qcd under wine...

My friend subdivision if you read the rules for this board you'd understand that only english is allowed and not other languages. I haven't solved the problem btw!Any help?

New hint here!My fonts r also messed up but readable in the settings tab of gnome-connect-to-the-internet-tool ( ;-) ) . What could b that wrong?????Plz help !!!

Braveheart1980 · 08-12-2004, 06:31 PM

Another hint : I am having the same boxes-instead-of-readable-characters thing in the prefrences of grustibus!

Braveheart1980 · 08-12-2004, 06:32 PM

Also when i turn off my pc and x shuts down to console i get a line with filled red boxes instead of characters and then the whole shutting down commands. Any ideas?

Braveheart1980 · 08-12-2004, 06:55 PM

Also gnome disk catalog has the same boxes instead of fonts!!

Braveheart1980 · 08-13-2004, 05:12 PM

Come on! Someone MUST have an idea of what is happening!!

Well, you probably need to install some cyrillic fonts in gnome. I have no idea how to do this (I am Serbian, and we use cyrillic as well, but I just go with english on my computer).

Hope that gives you any ideas,
