I'm still affected by this over a year later... has there been any progress on this? It may not be a gnome-terminal bug, but it's certainly affecting my gnome terminals. I've actually made a /usr/local/gt install of an ubuntu 8.04 gnome-terminal (and pango and vte and cairo, et al) so I can get my terminals to fit sanely on my very low resolution desktop. I want to get at least 120 columns on my largish non-scalable terminal font and I can't do it with this font tracking. It's not just that the tracking is too large, it's also apparently a little random, so some tracking seems randomly larger than others and it looks pretty bad.
If anyone has a solution for this, I'd really like to know it. -- Very large tracking (letter spacing) in Gnome Terminal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/348873 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
