ubuntu flash 中文乱码的解决

症状是所有中文都显示为方块

网上搜了很多方法,看上去都很暴力。另外在https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fontconfig/+bug/207198有很多讨论。

所有的方法都集中在/etc/fonts/conf.d/49-sansserif.conf这个文件上,不是修改就是删除。

(以下为个人猜测)

这个文件的用途是给没有通用字体名的字体加上sans-serif这个名字,比如说我想在标题栏上使用Comic Sans, 但是如果出现了中文怎么办?一般对中文的支持都是在serif, sans-serif,monospace这三个列表里加上中文字体,但是如果我指定的是Comic Sans,系统如何知道去哪里找中文字体呢。

所以这个文件就有用了,它给没有制定通用字体名(sans,sans-serif,monospace之一)的字体强行加上一个sans-serif,这样看上去就比较合理了。

而flash是怎么回事我就不知道了,因为不是所有的flash上显示中文都是乱码,youtube上的是乱码。

我在~/.fonts.conf里给sans-serif列表前端加了两个字体,一个英文一个中文,中文在后,这样可以让两种语言都能正确显示(因为中文字体对应的字符集包含英文的)。但是结果是flash就认第一个,不能匹配到第二个。我猜是flash请求时的问题,当然也可能是fontconfig的问题。如果我去掉了第一个字体,flash倒是正常了,但是所有字符都用那个中文字体显示了,不爽,所以这个文件不能动。

至于sansserif.conf这个文件,直接删除自然是不大合理,不知道会匹配到哪里去。目前的临时解决办法是把最后那个sans-serif改成我指定的那个中文字体,想了一下从逻辑上讲的通。

但是这个毕竟不是办法,让一般用户改这个还是不合理。如果是flash的问题自然好办,如果不是的话,我觉得可以给50-user.conf更高一点的级别,让用户自由度更大。

A Rocky Migration: Moving from docker-compose to Podman and gVisor

I've been running a few containers for several years. They were all running under rootless Docker with a single user. Initially, I planned to  migrate the containers to VMs , but I couldn't get a stable workflow after about two months of effort. Later,  gVisor caught my attention , and I decided to migrate to Podman with gVisor instead. The new plan is to run each container with  --userns=auto  and use Quadlet for systemd integration. This approach provides better isolation and makes writing firewall rules easier. I'm now close to migrating all my containers. Here are a couple of rough edges I'd like to share. Network Layout I compared  various networking options  and spent a few hours trying the one-interface-per-group approach before giving up. I settled on a single macvlan network and decided to use static IP addresses for my containers. To prevent a randomly assigned IP address from conflicting with a predefined one, I allocated a large IP range for my ...

GameConqueror 0.09 -- Linux Game Hacking Tool

If you are a game hacker If you've been looking for a `CheatEngine for Linux` Then you can't miss this. ============================================== GameConqueror is a game hacking tool for linux, it's written in PyGTK and uses scanmem as its backend. It's supposed to be with most useful features of CheatEngine for Linux. Currently, I've implemented almost everything about scanning, involving variant data types and scan types: Data Types: int{8/16/32/64}, float{32/64}, unknown type(int or float) and unknown width(will try each of them), byte array and string Scan Types: equal, greater, less, changed, unchanged, increased(by), decreased(by) This should be enough for most cases, so I decided to release it at the current status. ============================================= Here's how you can get it PPA (for Ubuntu users) https://launchpad.net/~coolwanglu/+archive/scanmem (I've not test it in 32bit environments or Jaunty, do please inform me if it doe...

Fix Google Security Code

Google Security Code (http://g.co/sc) is one type of 2-step verification. This is particularly useful when security keys and passkeys are not available. I have been using it in my LXC containers, until today I found out that it stopped working. It just kept saying "The code is invalid". It is easy to rule out some factors: The code works on other browsers on my laptop. The code works on other devices that are directly connected to the router. So it appears that Google also checks IP addresses besides the security code. Recently I have IPv6 enabled, so most devices that are directly connected to the router have both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. But  I only enabled IPv4 for my LXC containers. So I guess when a code is generated by device A and used by device B, Google should be able to check that device A and device B are closely located. But in my case, IPv6 address appears on device A but not on device B, which may look suspicious. To fix the problem, I just needed to disable IPv...
