Hello, I have a problem with cool-old-term and Ubuntu 14.04 (x64).

capture du 2014-08-13 10 19 39

Seems like it's not loading the background noise image or something is wrong with the brightness (I tried to mess with it without success). Or maybe because my system language is "French" ?

There's also that error when I load ./cool-old-term Unable to load translator "linux" Unable to load translator "default"

Regards.

Ok, I see the problem. Brightness is not the issue, you are just missing some files (the keytabs and the color scheme) I suggest you to retry the install procedure, following it step by step in (particular qmake && make && make install). In the end you will see a folder called /imports/org/kde/konsole in the project root, that must contain other two folders kb-layouts and color-schemes. If this is not the case post the output of qmake, make, and make install.

Hello! I had the same issue when I installed it with sudo make install instead of just make install.

Kurosar commented 10 years ago

There you go for the qmake log : http://hastebin.com/aqobegaduh.md

I tried to install it with sudo su, still the same issue in the terminal, and the screen is still "super bright", the folder "imports" only contains a folder called "org"....

EDIT 15:08 : Found the kb-layouts and color-schemes folders... they are here ' /cool-old-term/imports/org/kde/konsole ' But I still have the same problem..

@proedie wrote something worthy. If the files are in the right position it might be that you don't have the permissions to read them. I see from your log that you didn't use sudo, but can you check permissions of those files? Or try running ./cool-old-term with sudo to be sure.

Kurosar commented 10 years ago

Tried to install everything again with sudo, even tried to chown and chmod 777 -R the folder... I still have the issue, I'm running a fresh ubuntu install...

proedie commented 10 years ago

@Sakarias-Longhorn no, you misunderstood me. Do NOT use sudo. Install it with your normal user. It's no real installation at the moment.

Kurosar commented 10 years ago

Just tried to install it without sudo, same problem.

Swordfish90 commented 10 years ago

I really don't know what to say. It clear that the application can't read those files, but I don't understand why since they should be in the right location with the right permissions. Can you please attach the output of ls -lR in the cool-old-term folder?

Now I know your problem: you are french! :-) ... I just renamed my folder Téléchargements and I could reproduce the issue. Please try to copy the cool-old-term folder into /tmp/cool-old-term and launch it from there.

Oh my god... it's working now, Thanks a lot !

You're welcome but this is not a solution; It needs to be fixed. This morning I made some changes and colors schemes and layouts are recognized but the fonts are still missing.
