Hello,

I'm currently experiencing trouble with my login screen. I can't see any text, and despite entering correct login info I can't seem to log in. This error occured on my linux box running chromium (using the Icedtea java plugin).

Does anyone happen to know what the problem is?

Edit: attached a screenshot.

Chromium... that's Google's Web operating platform right?

I've seen people post issues about missing/corrupted letters that usually comes down video driver/chipset problems. If you could post some more system hardware details we might be able to solve this.

I tried installing the official sun plugin, since it might have something to do with the icedtea plugin. I didn't get to the login screen, instead I got this error:

Any thoughts what this could be?

Fixed!

Turns out there's 2 issues here. The first is the icedtea plugin, which doesn't render spiralknights correctly; this is fixed by installing sun's alternatives. The following java error is then fixed by:

"In /etc/sysctl.d/bindv6only.conf you have to change this line:
net.ipv6.bindv6only=1
To this:
net.ipv6.bindv6only=0
And run: invoke-rc.d procps restart"

Thanks to steen from the crunchbang forums for figuring this out!

Wow. Too bad someone no one

Wow. Too bad someone no one here could be a huge amount of help. If I'm understanding this properly, SK was going wonky because your Java plugin somehow defaulted to IPv6, which stopped all network activity due to the system having almost no official support anywhere.

It wasn't an issue specific

Well, nothing javabased worked, so it's really more of a linux issue than anything sk related. I'm confused why the icedtea plugin reacted so differently though - but I'm just glad everything works now.
