[SOLVED] [Linux] Missing interface buttons 0.9.7.0

[agente cobra]

hello gregory, I had the same problem that khalid77 and tried many of the advices given in this forum and the only way to view the missing buttons was running the pcsx2 and then changing the theme (it did not matter which theme). Nothing fixed it in ubuntu 10.10, in lucid lynx the ppa works fine with the interface until you hit the run button. when using the gsnull driver it seems to run ok but with a grey screen, I understand that plugin does nothing for the emulation, but when I change to the ZZ Ogl pG 0.3.0 it just shuts down no matter what config I set. any advice please¿

thanks a lot for your work

[gregory]

I need a full step by step example to reproduce the issue on my side. Screenshot are welcome.

For the moment I have a virtual machine with ubuntu 10.10. I will try later to launch a game. Do you have an ~/.xsession-errors ? If yes do a tail -f ~/.xsession-errors ; launch pcsx2 ; copy past the message when the missing menu appears.

Edit: I *try* to run a game inside the VM. The menu did not dissapear.

[khalid77]

i use the classic desktop theme..

Ambiance

Which version do you have exactly ?
Give me the output of "locale -a", could you try to test this command in a terminal "LANG=en_US.utf8 pcsx2"

Install pcsx2 dbg package, then try
gdb pcsx2
run
# hit your run button
bt

Hi gregory, after some time-off Im trying again to get my pcsx2 fixed.

Ive made and update of the ppa and now the version I have is "PCSX2 0.9.8.r0 - compiled on May 2 2011"
the output of "locale -a" and "LANG=en_US.utf8 pcsx2" are in the attachment.

this version gives me a different error when I try to run a game. it says that the hardware ot drivers are incompatible and it unloads all plugins after that.

thank you for your time

[gregory]

What graphic card do you have and which driver ? If nvidia -> try to upgrade your driver.
