Dear All, I installed the horae66 package on SUSE Linux 10.2. Everything went well, Artemis and Hephaestus works, but when I try to use Athena, I get the following message:
unknown color name "Helvetica -12 bold" at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/Tk/Submethods.pm line 37.
which looks like true, since 'Helvetica -12 bold' is certainly not a color name. On the other hand I do not have any idea where to go from here. Could you help me out of this please. Regards!
Hmmm... What perl/Tk version are you using? Do this at the command line: perl -e 'use Tk; print $Tk::VERSION, $/' If it is not 804.027 or 804.028, you should grab the latest from http://search.cpan.org/~ni-s/Tk-804.027/ and install it. My other worry is that your error message says "-12" -- font sizes cannot be negative. I don't see any place in the tarball where I specified a negative font size, so I am suspicious of your ~/.horae/athenarc file. The fonts section should be at the very end. Are any ofthe fonts defined with size -12? Or are any colors improperly defined? If so, simply delete (or rename or edit) the athenarc file and try firing Athena up again.
