screenshots showing the bug
That screenshot doesn't look like DejaVu Mono: the shape of the "l" is wrong (should have serif on top and curve at bottom) and "0" should have a dot in it then something weird is going on I selected dejaVu-mono instead of monospace in the gnome-font dialog after installing dejavu-fonts and dejavu-fonts-experimental from fedora extras.

screenshot 2
The monospace font in the font settings should be "Monospace". "Monospace" is a virtual font (similar to "Sans" and "Serif"). Did you change yourself to DejaVu Sans Mono Book? This should not make a big change, it's good to know anyway. Also, what is the settings in GNOME Terminal, Edit/Current Profile/Font?

fonts after X restart
it seems to work fine after restarting X
(In reply to comment #7) > Created an attachment (id=6143) [edit] > fonts after X restart > > it seems to work fine after restarting X There are some cases that when you try several fonts in the Font Preferences, fontconfig/GTK+ (?) gets confused regarding the spacing of the glyphs. This could also be a related issue. Could you please post to the fedora mailing list that all are now ok? :) (In reply to comment #8) > (In reply to comment #7) > > Created an attachment (id=6143) [edit] [edit] > > fonts after X restart > > > > it seems to work fine after restarting X > > There are some cases that when you try several fonts in the Font Preferences, > fontconfig/GTK+ (?) gets confused regarding the spacing of the glyphs.

I am closing the bug report as NOT OUR BUG (minor generic font-switching bug in fontconfig/pango). reopen Simos, do people and favor and reassign bugs to other projects when you find out they're not in the fonts alas, bugzilla doesn't have a mechanism to forward bugs from one bugzilla to another. Please create a bug for pango and point it at this bug URL. |
