can't get X terminal version
A frind is trying TomeNET in a X/Enlightenment Arch GNU/Linux X terminal but seems it launches the non-X terminal (tty) version: (https://imgur.com/a/poUYFz0). He now also gets errors about fonts. How can he run the regular X TomeNet version?

Re: can't get X terminal version
The main X window needs a 8x13 font at start (see in .tomentrc). Check with "xlsfonts" command if there are these kind of fonts installed.
Here is what I get on my manjaro:
Note: You can try to install the tangar or extra fonts as written in tomenet downloads page and then use the 8x13tg font for main window in .tomenetrc to start in X11 window. Than use font config in game to list/change fonts.
I hope this helps.
Here is what I get on my manjaro:
Code: Select all
$ xlsfonts|grep 8x13
8x13
8x13
8x13b
8x13b
8x13o
8x13o
8x13tg
8x13tg
I hope this helps.
Re: can't get X terminal version
My friend said it's a xorg-xlsfonts problem. He has that package so the xlsfonts command but it doesn't do something right in TomeNet if you see the log...
Re: can't get X terminal version
Maybe this helps. I have all the needed fonts in one directory (the needed 8x13 family and tangar fonts) and to use them I need to run a "xset fp+ <path>" command first. Like this:
Note:the last "xset q" command is to see id the fonts dir is in the font path.
Code: Select all
$ ls -a /opt/tomenet-4.9.1/lib/xtra/fonts/graphical

Re: can't get X terminal version
The programmers solved this on GitHub. It was in the guidebook or FAQ but my friend didn't read those, and I don't use Arch GNU/Linux.
