<p>Whenever I look at the attribute table or at the attribute dialog
for a shape, the attribute names are shown as _1,_2,_3, ... In the
attributes, Strings are generally displayed as "NULL". Numbers are
fine. </p>
<p>Here is what it looks like:<br>

<p>This happens to all shapefiles and it has not been a Problem in
the beginning but at some point it startet. I unintalled Qgis
several times and reinstalled different versions (2.2,2.6,2.8)
from different sources (Ubuntu repositories, QGIS repositories)
... the problem remained. I also uninstalled grass libraries ...
the problem remained. I reinstalled QT ... the problem remained.
Any suggestion? </p>
<p>With that problem, QGIS is hardly usable :(</p>
<p>I'm using Ubuntu 64-bit. The problem startet under version 14.04,
but survived an update to 14.10.<br>
</p>
<p>And: <span class="comment-copy"> The shapefiles are not broken!
I tried at Computers from my colleauges who share the same
configuration and everything is fine. Also doing a dbfdump gives
the correct attribute names and Strings are shown normally. So
the link dbf-qgis is somehow broken? <br>
