Bug#550497: xterm: Xft packed fonts are excessively wide
Package: xterm Version: 249-1 [This was initially reported as a comment on bug #549953, but as it appears to be a separate issue, I'm filing a new bug for it.] The "Packed Font" option, added in xterm 249 and enabled by default, causes certain fonts -- e.g., "DejaVu Sans Mono:pixelsize=10" -- to be displayed with a larger character width than normal. Disabling the option with the X resource "*forcePackedFont:false", or interactively through the C-mouse3 menu, restores the previous (and expected) behavior. The width in question is computed by the checkXft routine in fontutils.c; a field named "min_width" is set to the *maximum* width of characters in the ranges 32..127 and 159..255. In the case of DejaVu Sans Mono, characters 0xD8 and 0xF8 (uppercase and lowercase "o with stroke") are wider than the others; they are also wider than the font's reported maximum width, which is what is used in the non-packed case. In addition to the X resource workaround described above, changing line 1567 of fontutils.c by replacing 256 with 128 is also effective. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#548045: [fwd] [Bug 24255] [945GM] DVI monitor not detected
Hi. Using an intel Mac Mini, amd64 arch. I experience the same problem here. With the patch provided by Michal, xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.9.0-1 works for me. Also, pristine xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.9.0-1 works OK using linux 2.6.31.3 with kms enabled. I was going to provide X logs (with ModeDebug enabled), but I see that Michal already did that. I'll keep them around for a while in case you need them. Thanks. Happy hacking! -- pancho horrillo To be conscious that you are ignorant is a great step to knowledge.

Bug#550460: Ships /usr/lib/pkgconfig/xproto.pc but is arch: all
Package: x11proto-core Version: 7.0.15-1 Severity: wishlist Hi x11proto-core-dev is arch: all but ships an arch-specific pathname (/usr/lib/pkgconfig/xproto.pc). This is notably a problem when cross-compiling since dpkg-buildpackage sets PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR to /usr/$targetgnusystem/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/share/pkgconfig/ and hence doesn't see this .pc file, but it can't be cross-build since it's arch: all. I guess the .pc file should really be in /usr/share/pkgconfig. NB: thanks for Colin Watson for diagnosing this issue.

Bug#549953: xterm: Font tracking over wide.

GNOME applications produce nicer output, > therefore I have filed this as a bug in xterm. I can confirm this bug. The font in xterm (up to 248) used to be the same as in other programs, e.g. gedit or Emacs. But with xterm 249 the font spacing is much wider. Here are some screenshots for a comparison: xterm 248: http://imgur.com/a7DOp.png xterm 249: http://imgur.com/o6QvS.png gedit: http://imgur.com/Kvp3q.png In my ~/.Xresources file I've set the following: xterm*faceName: DejaVu Sans Mono:pixelsize=12 For now I've reverted to xterm 248 and set it on hold in my system because the new font display is really annoying. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
