I wanted to run a dotNET GUI application, so I emerged mono and mono-wine and started it, and I get everytime: ... Font metrics: 48.4% done Font metrics: 48.6% done Font metrics: 48.7% done Font metrics: 48.8% done X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 45 (X_OpenFont) Value in failed request: 0x3400d14 Serial number of failed request: 10203 Current serial number in output stream: 10204 Any ideas how to fix it? BTW: I'm running this as root user. I had to create a symboli link: ln -s /root /home/root so that it could find my .wine directory. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
mono-wine is out dated and will hopefully be updated soon (when the new stuff comes out) we will look into this later. For the meantime, use gtk# :)
Okay, were is gtk# in portage? Or how do I get a dotNET programm running with a GUI under Linux ?
I can anwser this myself :) emerge sync ; emerge gtk-sharp
Here's how you fix that font problem after joharkwan's post: http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=9136&highlight= Worked for me anyway. But then the first program I tried running didn't draw all the GUI widgets correctly. I hope the new update is soon. Will gtk-sharp run Windows.Forms code? In other words, will it effectively replace mono-wine?
