Hi, I just grabbed the Debian celestia v 1.2.1 package and installed it on my Debian Woody, kernel 2.4.27 box using apt-get. During the install I lost my dial up connection a few times and I merely started it up again using the command "apt-get --fix-missing celsestia". Eventually I got a complete installation after several interruptions.
The first time I ran it the window appeared as per the man page Overview section. There it says that celestia will display a welcome message and some information about your target (top left corner), your speed, and the current time. On my installation the window appears appropriately filled with stars/planets but all the text in each of the four corners of the window is an unreadable collection of pipes, "||||| ||| ||" Upon cursory examination of the FAQs I found no reference to this sort of behavior. I'd appreciate any and all suggestions or comments on the this problem and/or its solution.
Thanks
