Hi all, |
2 |
I did an "emerge -NuD world", it nearly finished, 2 or 3 big files to |
3 |
go, when I decided it was bed time. I killed the build and went to bed. |
4 |
This morning I can't now fire up Konsole, which I use as my terminal, |
5 |
XTerm or UXTerm. |
6 |
|
7 |
In more detail, I get the Konsole window, the menu is there and I can |
8 |
open other tabs etc, but instead of the command prompt, I just get a |
9 |
small grey blob in the top left hand corner. Hitting return does not get |
10 |
me any carriage returns. |
11 |
|
12 |
XTerm gives me the bouncing icon next to the cursor for a period of |
13 |
time then disappears. |
14 |
|
15 |
UXTerm gives me a small window with the message: |
16 |
|
17 |
"uxterm tried unsuccessfully to use locale en_US.UTF-8 by setting |
18 |
$LC_CTYPE to "en_US.UTF-8. |
19 |
|
20 |
and that's all. I hit the OK button on the window and it all disappears. |
21 |
|
22 |
Last night Konsole was fine, I did the emerge through it, but now |
23 |
nothing. I didn't do revded-rebuild or etc-update as I usually do after |
24 |
a world emerge. |
25 |
|
26 |
Does anyone know what's wrong and how I can get out of this bind. |
27 |
Something without having to resorting to rescue disks would be good but |
28 |
if all else fails..... |

Thanks for any thoughts, |
