[02:43] <ball> Ugh.  My son's Xubuntu box hosed itself again.
[02:48] <ball> Perhaps I just need a newer version.

[03:50] <ball> Hah... Xubuntu
[03:54] <ball> brb, rebooting a thing...
[04:09] <ball> test
[04:10] <ball> Oh good, I'm still here.
[04:12] <Guest_45> hello
[04:16] <ball> Hello
[10:37] <Fernando-Basso> I have set my terminal to use Inconsolata SemiExpanded Medium font. I have a PS1 prompt that uses  (echo -e '\ue712') which seems to be provided by Hack Nerd Font. That char displays like an “N”.
[10:37] <Fernando-Basso> Seems like Xubuntu is not using an alternative font for code points it doesn't find in the current font.
[10:37] <Fernando-Basso> If I change the terminal to use Hack Nerd Font, then that char displays just fine.
[10:40] <Fernando-Basso> https://i.imgur.com/wl0xjGZ.png
[10:40] <Fernando-Basso> I installed the nerd fonts to ~/.local/share fonts and run fc-cache -fv (without sudo).
[10:42] <brainwash> Fernando-Basso: I would check if it works with gnome-terminal
[10:47] <Fernando-Basso> I will. In my other machine with Arch Linux, a very similar setup works without problem.
[10:48] <Fernando-Basso> Is it right that when a font doesn't have a certain code point, the “system” should find another font for that char?
[10:48] <Fernando-Basso> And gnome terminal has problems even listing nerd fonts.
[10:49] <brainwash> I'm not quite sure how it works
[10:49] <brainwash> there is https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/font_configuration
[10:51] <Fernando-Basso> Yeah, but in arch I didn't do any config. (neither in Xubuntu so far).
[10:52] <Fernando-Basso> Yep, same thing with gnome-terminal.
[10:52] <Fernando-Basso> Hmm. If I set ubuntu mono, then it displays that char.
[10:54] <brainwash> debugging this could be tricky I think
[10:54] <brainwash> at least I have no idea how it could be done
[10:55] <Fernando-Basso> Indeed. And I know nothing about this subject. Perhaps arch has newer packages related to fonts that handle this better.
[10:55] <brainwash> that is usually the case
[10:55] <brainwash> unless you run the latest Xubuntu dev build
[11:00] <Fernando-Basso> Gosh, it happens with the “medium” variant of that inconsolata semiexpanded. If I pick “semibold” then it works.
[11:00] <Fernando-Basso> And I actually now remember that I use the semibold variant in Arch, not medium.
[11:05] <brainwash> aha!
[11:20] <Fernando-Basso> This font weight thing across fonts might be tricking the font system and bugging it.
[15:24] <xu-irc79w> gimp xsane plugin xuuntu 18.04 ,  xsane installed and working need to integrate with gimp ? any ideas
