Questions for all #emacs and #spacemacs people: why it do this (at the bottom, the powerline I think it's called)
@jordyd i think it's because of font issues? i just left it that way
@CobaltVelvet I won't sleep at night until this is fixed
@jordyd @CobaltVelvet you need to get some powerline patched fonts and use those. (Set them up in your .spacemacs, SPC f e d; under dotspacemacs-default-font)
@fabianhjr @CobaltVelvet @arisunz I installed some patched fonts to ~/.local/share/fonts, but I can't get emacs to use them. I tried "Source Code Pro", "Source Code Pro for Powerline", and "Source Code Pro Powerline", none of which fix it
@jordyd @arisunz @CobaltVelvet what distro are you using?
@fabianhjr @CobaltVelvet @arisunz Arch Linux, also I'm using GNOME
@jordyd @arisunz @CobaltVelvet I am not too sure about this but looks like there is a simple fix.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Powerline#Fonts
Just `sudo pacman -S powerline-fonts`
@fabianhjr @CobaltVelvet @arisunz I tried that too but it didn’t seem to work :/
@jordyd @arisunz @CobaltVelvet
Could you `M-x describe-font` in Spacemacs?
@jordyd @arisunz @CobaltVelvet it is fethcing the non-powerline patched font from /usr/share/fonts/
Maybe remove adobe-source-code-pro-fonts and keep the ones you got into ~/.local/share/fonts ?
@CobaltVelvet @arisunz @jordyd a second option could be installing https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nerd-fonts-complete/
and using that one?
@fabianhjr @arisunz @CobaltVelvet Yeah idk anymore
@jordyd @CobaltVelvet @arisunz are you using emacsclient / emacs in daemon mode? That seems to be the only current issue with Mode Line.
@fabianhjr @arisunz @CobaltVelvet Unless it's starting a daemon of its own accord, no. I just run it from GNOME.
@fabianhjr @arisunz @CobaltVelvet
$ ps ax | grep emacs
13068 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep emacs
20913 ? Ss 0:00 gpg-agent --homedir /home/jordyd/.emacs.d/elpa/gnupg --use-standard-socket --daemon
@jordyd @CobaltVelvet @arisunz ok, I am out of ideas. Sorry. :(
@fabianhjr @arisunz @CobaltVelvet It's alright, and thank you for your help
@jordyd @CobaltVelvet @arisunz good luck with the glitch. Though, maybe switching to develop branch and updating all packages fixes it? :V
It is as a last resort.
@jordyd @CobaltVelvet @arisunz oh shit, still broken? :S
