Hi Lutz,



Starting the help from the newlisp-edit brought me this fine error,

just as a notification that java can crash too ;-)..



Im checking the error currently ..

During all the devlopment of guiserver.jar the JVM has never crashed on me (Mac OS X). The error seems to have its origin in libfontmanager.so, a Linux X-Windows system library? I would send the error log to Sun.

Now I remember Michael having had a similar problem on OS X. After removing a specific font it stopped crashing. It happened when trying to set/use that font.



Load all fonts using gs:get-fonts, then try them out one by one. You could start out with the allfonts-demo.lsp and put a (println ...) statement in to the (dolist ...) where it sets the fonts. Or just turn the trace on and see on which font it bombs.

I think i know the problem, its indeed a font issue!

I had a fresh linux install and dont have the extented font yet.. ;-)

ill check it again when done..
