Please try this: sudo sh -x /usr/local/share/xastir/scripts/get-NWSdata This will tell the shell to spit out a line for each line of the script it executes, and should pin down what command it's not finding. Since the script itself exists, then obviously one or more of the programs it uses is not on your system. As Curt says, get-NWSdata uses wget, unzip, cut and rm. I doubt that "rm" is the problem, so it's gotta be one of the others. > BTW, did anyone figure out the adobe helvctia font problem I mentioned? > I can resend if it got swallowed in cyberspace. I answered you within minutes of your post. Check that xfonts-100dpi and xfonts-75dpi are installed. Recent versions of Ubuntu stopped making them required by the X packages, meaning that old programs like Xastir that depend on these old standard fonts for their default font choices get this kind of error. I had the same problem when I installed Xastir on an Ubuntu 12.04 system. -- Tom Russo KM5VY SAR502 DM64ux http://www.swcp.com/~russo/ Tijeras, NM QRPL#1592 K2#398 SOC#236 http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?DDTNM echo "prpv_a'rfg_cnf_har_cvcr" | sed -e 's/_/ /g' | tr [a-m][n-z] [n-z][a-m] _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
