pdflatex: Font futr8r at [...] not found

Wed, 09/22/2010 - 18:58 — deap

I recently had a really annoying issue with pdflatex:

  1. !pdfTeX error: pdflatex (file futr8r): Font futr8r at 442 not found
  2.  ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!

The fourier font was not correctly installed on my archlinux texlive, I don't know why...
To solve this, I just had to manually install the font with the following shell command: updmap --enable Map fourier.map

Empty Menus in Emacs23

Wed, 04/21/2010 - 11:51 — deap

I use emacs as a TeX/LaTeX editor with the excellent AUCTeX mode, but when I upgraded to Emacs23, I lost AUCTeX menus!
I usually don't use those "rookie menus" but it's really useful to quickly recover a shortcut or a command name.

I found the clue at Life Algorithms: just add
export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1
to your ~/.bashrc.

My open source corner
