no, maybe it is fontconfig, maybe your update changed the opengl you are using (have you checked, that you are using nvidia-glx as a nvidia user and atis-glx as ati user?), maybe something else. Do you have amd64 and cool'n'quiet activated? Or a P4 that is overheating and throttling? --deep is almost never needed. Some people love it and tell everybody to use it. Usually people who are version number freaks. But in 90% it is useless to harmfull. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
