options menu and font problem (Linux inside)

[mobidyc]

Hello,

first, thanks to you to make minion works on Linux

When I want to search for an add-on, the description is unreadable, I think it's a font problem but I'm unable to solve this problem by myself.
you can see the screenshot in attachment.

Maybe there is an option to modify but unfortunately, tools -> options doesn't work for me.

When I try to access the options, nothing happens.

I've read the FAQ and found nothing concerning my problems.

current core version : 2.3.2
Linux : ubuntu 10.04 beta 1
$ uname -a
Linux argon 2.6.32-19-generic #28-Ubuntu SMP Thu Apr 1 10:39:41 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_18"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.8) (6b18~pre4-1ubuntu1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 16.0-b13, mixed mode)

If I launch java in verbose mode, here is the output when I click on options:
$ java -verbose -jar minion.jar

I am also haveing the same problem.

Hmm, I don't have any issues with MMOMinion on Linux. I'm using Debian Sid running the official Sun Java 1.6.0_18 (Java 6).

If you're using Ubuntu the installed java may very well be one of the unofficial Java's or even a GNU java which could present compatibility problems.

Likewise however I did some testing (Ubuntu 9.10). If I use the OpenJDK (the FOSS version of Java) 6 Runtime to run Minion the fonts look like those in the screenshot. However if I use the Sun Java 6 Runtime, Minion's fonts and menus look just fine.

If you have issues with Minion and you don't have Sun Java 6 installed, you can find Sun Java via Synaptic or the Ubuntu Software Center. You will need to have the Multiverse repository enabled (System -> Administration -> Software Sources then tick the multiverse checkbox).

I should add that Ubuntu comes with OpenJDK 6 (Or IcedTea in older versions) by default. Sun Java 6 has be to be installed by the user (in the same way that Flash and .mp3 support has to be installed by the user).

Thanks for your lights Zyonin.

effectively, It works better with OpenJre 6.

however, I've even no access to the options menu but it's a minor problem now.

thanks for everything.
