--- Begin Message ---Package: gnome-control-center Version: 1:2.14.2-6 Severity: normal I am running debian sid on a widescreen (1680x1050) laptop, and accessing it remotely from a Windows machine using the x11vnc package. I run the VNC server using this alias: vnc is aliased to `cd; nohup x11vnc -display :0 -rfbauth ~/.vnc/passwd &' The Windows machine has a screen resolution of 1280x1024, so the laptop's display didn't fit on the screen. From the Windows machine, I used the Desktop > Preferences > Screen Resolution dialog to change the resolution down to 1152x864. The first time I tried, the VNC session died, and by the time I had reconnected the "do you want to keep this resolution" dialog had almost timed out. I saw it for a split second before it disappeared. I didn't get a chance to click 'yes', so the resolution changed back. I tried again, thinking I'd be quicker this time, but to my surprise this time the resolution changed and the VNC session didn't disconnect. I told it to keep the new resolution. The problem then was that the fonts were huge. I use a DPI setting of 126 on the laptop, because the pixels are very small. I ran the Desktop > Preferences > Font dialog and clicked 'Details' to get to the DPI setting, but gnome-control-center crashed. I tried several times, but it crashed every time I clicked 'Details'. I downloaded and built the source and ran it in gdb. Here's the failure: 0x0804e645 in cb_show_details (button=0x807b5f0, parent=0x80c2010) at /home/chris/src/gnome-control-center/control-center-2.14.2/./capplets/font/main.c:856 856 dpi = floor ((gdk_screen_width () / gdk_screen_width_mm () + (gdb) print gdk_screen_height() $1 = 864 (gdb) print gdk_screen_height_mm() $2 = 0 (gdb) print gdk_screen_width() $3 = 1152 (gdb) print gdk_screen_width_mm() $4 = 0 (gdb) where #0 0x0804e645 in cb_show_details (button=0x807b5f0, parent=0x80c2010) at /home/chris/src/gnome-control-center/control-center-2.14.2/./capplets/font/main.c:856 #1 0xb78d5e1b in g_cclosure_marshal_VOID__VOID () from /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0 #2 0xb78c898b in g_closure_invoke () from /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0 It's dividing by zero because for some reason the screen width and height in millimetres are both zero.

--- Begin Message ---Version: 1:2.19.6-1 2007-03-21 Federico Mena Quintero <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Fix the gnome-settings-daemon part of https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=217790 and http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=378338: try to figure out the DPI value from the X server or the user's GConf settings. Should also fix https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=240246. * gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-xsettings.c (gnome_xft_settings_get): Call get_dpi_from_gconf_or_server() to figure out a reasonable DPI value; don't unconditionally get it from GConf. (get_dpi_from_gconf_or_server): New function. If the user has ever set the /desktop/gnome/font_rendering/dpi value in GConf, we use its value. Otherwise, we ask the X server. We constrain the X server's response to a range of reasonable DPI values, since some servers lie about the screen's phisical dimensions --- the user would get unusably huge or tiny fonts otherwise. * capplets/font/main.c (dpi_load): First, see if the DPI value is actually set in GConf. If it is, it means that the user has changed it at least once. In that case, just use the value. Otherwise, find the value from the X server in a similar way to what we do in gnome-settings-daemon. -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22
