After a fresh install of FreeBSD 8.2 and ports, awesome refuses to draw any text for me. My window title bars are empty of text, but I have the icons in the upper right. My task list shows the applications icon, but no text. The work space tags (1..9) are all missing, but I see the small square dot showing that there are windows present. The clock in the task bar also is missing, but I have the icons showing the layouts and the icons in the system tray. And all of the menus are blank too.
I don't *think* its a font issue, as "pango-view --font='sans 8'" works just fine, as does pango-view for "sans 18" and "sans 24" too. I changed the font from "sans 8" to "sans 18" and then "sans 24" and each time the blanks for the workspace tags got wider, so something about the size is getting through. I was using Awesome 3.4.9, but then did a portdowngrade to 3.4.8 and I'm still having problems. I'm really kind of stumped. Any thoughts? -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [email protected].
