[gentoo-user] emacs font problem
Recently emacs (running in X "window" mode) seems to have developed a font problem. There are two cases where text displays as a mixture of filled and unfilled rectangles: 1) When the mouse pointer hovers over certain things a balloon pops up containing nothing but black filled rectangles. 2) When you select "About Emacs" from the Help menu, the logo renders properly at the top of the screen, but the rest is blocks and rectangles: http://www.panix.com/~grante/emacsabout.png Normal editing is fine. Google hasn't found anything except discussion of problems with a misssing default font (the one used during editing), and I don't have any problems with that.
