Hi,

I am using cool-retro-term-1.0.0_6 on FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE amd64, built it myself in poudriere.

It starts, but I don't get prompt (screenshot attached).

Here's console output:

A month has passed without any reply. Bump.
Comment 2 Alexey Dokuchaev freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-06-25 16:50:38 UTC
The port has been updated to the latest version in ports r505098.  Could you test it and see if the problem's still there?
Comment 3 Alexey Dokuchaev freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-06-25 16:59:23 UTC
Sorry, forgot to mention: about the missing text (empty display), please see this bug #209280: you might need to start it as "env LC_NUMERIC=C cool-retro-term".

It's probably not too hard to fix, but I didn't play with the code long enough to craft a patch and fix it for real, esp. since there are more serious issues to worry about (like abnormally high CPU usage).

Hi,

thank you for looking into this problem.

I have upgraded to latest version:

pacija@efreet:~ % pkg info -x cool
cool-retro-term-1.1.1

I have set LC_NUMERIC to C:

pacija@efreet:~ % env | grep NUME
LC_NUMERIC=C

...but I still don't get any text.

I'm running this in xfce session, could it be that there's some dependency missing?

Here's output from terminal:

pacija@efreet:~ % cool-retro-term --verbose

Comment 5 Marko Cupać 2019-08-24 16:22:54 UTC
Hi,

I gave a spin to full KDE environment in a VirtualBox VM, and cool-retro-term seem to work in KDE. Still doesn't work in XFCE.

Could it be that some dependency is being missed in XFCE, but is already in KDE?

Could be, but I've just built and run it in a pretty basic, pure X.Org+Openbox environment, and it works as expected.

Perhaps the problem occurs when there are some issues with OpenGL and/or hardware gfx acceleration?  What does "glxinfo -B | grep Device" yields on the system where the port does not work?

Hi,

I haven't been starting cool-retro-term for a long time, now when I read your reply I gave it another try and it works.

In the meantime I reverted my graphics driver from modesetting to xf86-video-intel due to XFCE  bug:

https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15990

...but that is irrelevant - cool-retro-term works with both drivers now.

Whatever happened in the meantime (upgrading to 12.1-RELEASE, constantly building and installing latest ports from HEAD) appears to have solved the problem.

As far as I am concerned, this issue has been "overcome by events", it can be closed. Should I do it or you?

Thanks,

Glad it works for you now as well Marko!

I think I still have one machine somewhere where I've observed a similar problem with the port; let me see if I can make any use of it in the next several days, otherwise I'll close it.
