How to access the kernel menuconfig in a Yocto project using bitbake?

I am currently trying to build a very simple system using Yocto. For this, I would like to change the kernel config, so I run:
bitbake -c menuconfig virtual/kernel
However, I can't get this to open the kernel menuconfig.
When using xterm or rvxt for OE_TERMINAL, a terminal opens very shortly and clos
Using tmux yields nothing
Using screen yields:
Trying to run: screen -r devshell_11581
There is no screen to be resumed matching devshell_11581.
With no way I can actually access the kernel menuconfig. Also I could not find any logs.
What do I need to do to make this work?
As mentionned in the official Yocto reference manual here.
Try to set OE_TERMINAL to "auto" to let bitbake detect your default terminal. Or when using one of:
gnome
xfce
xvt
screen
konsole
make sure that it is installed on your system.
I think, from my little experience:
gnome (for gnome-terminal)
xfce (for xfce-terminal)
xvt
screen
konsole (for KDE environment)
Edit: Also make sure that you install all Yocto dependencies, specially libncurses-dev for menuconfig menu.

buildroot new fs can't install grub2

I'm traing to use buildroot and compile new embedded system for testing.
Everything looks ok I use last kernel 4.9.16 and buildroot is from 02.2017. After compiling I can't install grub2 there's now grub software on new root file system and second there's now bash in /bin and anywhere? There's only ash shell.
It's weird because the same procedure I made on mint 17 couple days ago and it works like a charm. I changed disk in my laptop and now I'm using fresh manjaro. I don't think this could be a problem because when I compile new system I can't chose bash in menu but I chose grub2 as bootloader.
Regarding bash: Buildroot by default only installs Busybox, which provides a more minimalistic shell called ash, which is sufficient for most purposes. If you really need bash, you can also get it by enabling it in the Buildroot menuconfig.
Regarding grub2, please have a look at the help text of the Grub2 option in Buildroot, it explains how to install it.

PDF thumbnail not appearing

PDF file in Text & Media element won't show.
I added two PDF and one image. As you can see from generated markup, the PDF come out empty, while the image shows:
Have tried all tests in Install tool. Every test succeeded except Render text with TrueType font using 'niceText' option (screenshot)
The most likely cause for non-working PDF thumbnails is that Ghostscript is not installed. You can check that in the TYPO3 install tool.
Another possibility would be a misconfiguration of ImageMagick in TYPO3, especially the version (im_version_5 setting and friends).
As the problem only occurs in the frontend, you should also check if the path is correct and/or if you have any permission problems writing to typo3temp/. If that is all correct, try flushing the processed files cache (in the install tool) and check if the thumbnails in the backend appear correctly again.
If you have installed ghostscript via brew, ghostscript is installed in /usr/local/bin. You need a symlink to ghostscript in /usr/bin/
Restart mac
CMD + R on restart.
Start terminal
run csrutil disable
Normal Restart
sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/gs /usr/bin/gs
Restart again with CMD + R and open terminal
run csrutil enable to enable System Integration Security again.
Thanks to https://stackoverflow.com/users/9913753/chriskr for the csrutil hint

eclipse opening X11 Window

I wanted to see how the code of FFMpeg works. So what I did is imported this project in eclipse. When I run the binary from the command line, it decodes the entire video without any problem and displays it as well. However if I run exactly same binary from the eclipse, it fails. It fails when the binary executes the following statement -
instance->display = XOpenDisplay (NULL);
Can anyone tell if there is any special requirement for running X11 apps in eclipse? I have linked the necessary libraries in the code. Also the binary works perfectly from the command line.
Had a similar problem developing with ROOT gui classes.
I solved the issue adding the env variable DISPLAY to :0 in the run configuration tab.

Where can I find the gtk-builder-convert script?

I've built a small GUI app for work that uses some .glade files for pop-up windows. Recently, the ground beneath me was shifted - my environment was upgraded. Newer pyGTK versions require GTKBuilder and .xml files instead of Glade and .glade files and now my poor app is broken.
I need to convert the .glade file to the newer .xml file. Problem is Glade-3 is not on our system, and I can't find gtk-builder-convert on the web. I've looked at the Gnome GIT Browser, don't know where to start looking or how to search it.
Would anyone be kind enough to point me to the gtk-builder-convert python script?
gtk-builder-convert is part of GTK and it should already be installed on your system since you have GTK version 2.12 or higher. But if you really can't find it, here it is in the git browser: http://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/tree/gtk/gtk-builder-convert
ubuntu: install the tools by sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
but it is now deprecated
It worked on Linux for me using Gtk3+ and Glade3+ installed from conda by following steps.
Open your Gtk1+ older glade XML file designed in Glade1+ user interface in Glade3+ user interface.
Click on Save button in Glade3+ user interface.
Use this command after conda activate gtk-builder-convert infile outfile.
