Problem with ASCII characters instead of lines #129

Closed PriamX closed 2 years ago

PriamX commented 2 years ago

I've done something wrong, and I don't know what, the compile was straightforward without any errors or warnings.

Instead of getting the pretty ncurses lines, I'm getting ascii characters in its place (see screenshot):

I'm using PuTTY. Is the problem with PuTTY or my compiled nvtop? Any ideas where I can look to fix it?

EDIT: This is on Fedora 34. Nvidia Driver 495.29.05. ncurses-devel 6.2-4.20200222

Thanks!

Ah, ha. Looks like it's PuTTY-related. This post was very helpful:

How to support extended curses characters with PuTTY

To confirm I did export NCURSES_NO_UTF8_ACS=1 in the terminal session and nvtop now looks all pretty as it should. Now I just need to figure out how to fix it the correct, and long-term way.

Here's the correct, long-term solution (in PuTTY):
