Thanks for the feedback. This is the old patch that I used to compile the test kernel in #4: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/dkGBkd2R85/
I think I have found the cause, the compiled-in option was not set. If you run "make menuconfig" against a clean source to enable TER16x32 (Library routines >> Select compiled-in fonts, the interactive menu will tell you that you will need this. Although you can still unselect this compiled-in fonts after enabling TER16x32) A v2 has been built successfully on the Disco test machine at hand: u@ubuntu:~$ cat /boot/config-5.0.0-9-generic | grep FONT CONFIG_FONT_SUPPORT=y CONFIG_FONTS=y CONFIG_FONT_8x8=y CONFIG_FONT_8x16=y # CONFIG_FONT_6x11 is not set # CONFIG_FONT_7x14 is not set # CONFIG_FONT_PEARL_8x8 is not set CONFIG_FONT_ACORN_8x8=y # CONFIG_FONT_MINI_4x6 is not set CONFIG_FONT_6x10=y # CONFIG_FONT_10x18 is not set # CONFIG_FONT_SUN8x16 is not set # CONFIG_FONT_SUN12x22 is not set CONFIG_FONT_TER16x32=y Will try again on our build server. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1819881 Title: [CONFIG] please enable highdpi font FONT_TER16x32 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux source package in Trusty: In Progress Status in linux source package in Xenial: In Progress Status in linux source package in Bionic: In Progress Status in linux source package in Cosmic: In Progress Bug description: [CONFIG] please enable highdpi font FONT_TER16x32 This is now available in v5.0 config/config.common.ubuntu:# CONFIG_FONT_TER16x32 is not set https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/diff/lib/fonts/Kconfig?id=ac8b6f148fc97e9e10b48bd337ef571b1d1136aa To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1819881/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
