Title: Translation File /i18n/libsl.qmid
Post by: eji on February 09, 2006, 03:17:27 am
When launching NeoCal, I'm getting the following error:

"could not open translation file /home/QtPalmtop//i18n/en/libsl.qmid"

Then my Z freezes and I have to pop the battery to reboot. There may be two problems. One, I checked, and there really is no libsl.qmid in that directory. And two, the double forward slash after QtPalmtop in the directory path... is that normal?

This has never happened in a year of Z ownership, and suddenly I'm getting more than a few apps (Helpbrowser, to name another) that are freezing the system on execution. And all Help Browser seems to be is a link to Opera and an index.html file.

Does anyone have this file "libsl.qmid" so I could throw it in there and see what happens? Has anyone run into problems like this?

Well, on my C3000 with Cacko 1.23b1 this error message appears whenever I start a program with QTopia GUI from console. But no system crash or whatever. And the programs work anyway.

But I'd also be interested in a solution, and of course in the reason..

As I see this message too from time to time, I wonder if the freeze & this message aren't just a coincidence. Did you install some new app before these freezes occurred for the first time? Maybe some lib was replaced or so? Just a guess.

I think I was getting this message and by changing it's permissions to "root qpe" they went away. "
Code: [Select]
chown root.qpe /home/QtPalmtop/i18n/en/libsl.qmid

I finally got to the cause of the issue. It's these damn alternate fonts I installed -- Calibri masquerading as Helvetica. That's what's freezing the system when I launch NeoCal, not this .qmid file -- which, incidentally, I found on a feed and dropped into place, stopping that particular error. The new font works fine in general and looks absolutely beautiful, but it's rendered my Help Browser and NeoCal dangerously unusable.
