Fail to auto detect the font used by gnome terminal #7

Open sebastiencs opened 7 years ago

sebastiencs commented 7 years ago

I open this issue to follow the bug of @BlitzKraft in #1

@BlitzKraft, can you try to run these commands:

dconf read /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/list It should returns an array of string, those are your profiles ID.
With each profile ID, please run: dconf read /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/:PROFILE_ID/font

Also, what's your version of gnome-terminal ?

BlitzKraft commented 7 years ago

The first dconf gave an empty list . I don't seem to have any values/keys under profiles:/.

Is DE relevant? I don't use gnome, but I use the gnome-apps (nautilus, terminal etc.).

sebastiencs commented 7 years ago

@BlitzKraft It's probably relevant. What distro and DE is it ? I will test it in a VM

I am using sabayon, with bspwm. 

uname -a

@sebastiencs I used install.sh script, and that worked with fbterm. Worked even better than expected, because powerline patched fonts didn't work until I installed fbterm.

@BlitzKraft Just curious, why do you use fbterm ? It seems a bit limited compare to others terminals under X.

I didn't take the time to try sabayon yet. Do you have at least any output with dconf list /org/gnome/terminal/ ?

BlitzKraft commented 7 years ago

I rarely use fbterm. Mainly to help me focus on some tasks. Since it doesn't need an X running, I won't be able to easily open browser and distract myself.

For the dconf output, there is one UUID under /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/:[some-uuid]. There doesn't seem to be nothing under the uuid.
