I have the whole gdk base, dev files, pango, and gtk etc. intalled. not sure what i missed. currently running suse 10.0 Gdk-WARNING **: Missing charsets in FontSet creation Gdk-WARNING **: JISX0208.1983-0 Gdk-WARNING **: KSC5601.1987-0 Gdk-WARNING **: GB2312.1980-0 Gdk-WARNING **: JISX0201.1976-0 connect: Connection refused connect: Operation now in progress init_poll: get_socket_error(): 111 |

Best guess is that they are from your machine's X server for your display and that you are missing a few requested fonts. Do you get small rectangles instead of some chars being displayed?... Or have you not noticed anything missing? Good luck, Martin See new freedom: Mageia Linux Take a look for yourself: Linux Format The Future is what We all make IT (GPLv3) |

while I've never had this occur with boinc, I've had similar messages from other apps relating to the sytem wide /etc/gtk/gtkrc or individual user ~/.gtkrc files on our Debian machines. Presently no users have a .gtkrc in their home directories, and /etc/gtk/gtkrc is a symlink to /etc/gtk/gtkrc.iso-8859-15 with no reports of strange font displays or warning messages. |

Best guess is that they are from your machine's X server for your display and that you are missing a few requested fonts. The only thing ive noticed is the total lack of any information on the statistics tab, no matter what sub you click on. i search for gtkrc under yasts package installer but come up with nothing... was pretty sure this was a font issue, was basically trying to figure out how to get them. searching the web only seems to come up with a few hundred hits on. the same error, but no solution other then ignoring it. |
