Guest Goofusbrain Posted March 31, 2003 Report Share Posted March 31, 2003 Ermmm.. is it just me? Just upgraded to 9.1 from 9.0 and there are icons in the control center... but no text at all... No text in the Software Manager, either... just radio buttons and such.. (rather tricky when ya don't know what's supposed to be there.. heh) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted March 31, 2003 Report Share Posted March 31, 2003 Just upgraded to 9.1 from 9.0Upgrade?...or clean install? If uprade, expect other weird things to happen. Best to do a clean install. As for the prob, run mcc from a terminal and see if you get any output that points to the prob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Goofusbrain Posted March 31, 2003 Report Share Posted March 31, 2003 It was an upgrade.... Thanks for the suggestion... Typed in mcc in the Konsole.. which basically said there was 'probably an error in the creation of /etc/pango/pango.modules' (which there was, as there *wasn't* a file by this name) I tried the fix that was suggested by the error 'running pango-querymodules' but it didn't create the file. ::shrug:: Guess I'll try a clean install. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ndeb Posted March 31, 2003 Report Share Posted March 31, 2003 Regarding clean install, all u need to do is format /. U don't need to format /home. If you do not format /home, all data on it will remain intact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted March 31, 2003 Report Share Posted March 31, 2003 was pango installed? [bvc@localhost bvc]$ urpmf /etc/pango/pango.modulespango:/etc/pango/pango.modules [bvc@localhost bvc]$ You could just try to install pango and dependencies. If you want to continue to try the upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Goofusbrain Posted March 31, 2003 Report Share Posted March 31, 2003 Yup.. just formatted / .. left /home intact. Of course.. am installing via ftp so will take awhile.. heh. (burner's making coasters instead of good burns of the iso files) Yup... pango was installed. The other pango file that was supposed to be in the same directory as pango.modules was there... and running the query gave a nice long list of the module files. And... I'd discovered a few other, rather goofy glitches from upgrading versions... Like going to the super user file manager tried to launch me into a CVS session.. which it'd never done before. So... just decided to start, more or less, from scratch. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
