None of this has worked and I am still clueless why this happens on some hardware and not others. Only interesting observation is that Ubuntu X_64 offers slightly better (larger) fonts than i386 version. And, BtW what WM are you running ? Xfce, IceWM or IceWM. I do not think the WM would be the cause. -- Regards, Sudev Barar Read http://blog.sudev.in for topics ranging from here to there. ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22-24, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

[ilugd] Problem in java application screen rendering
I have a network with two types of thin clients. The ones with i810 mother boards render a java application in the browser with extremely small font. While all other terminals render the same application just fine. Apart from playing with all the settings for thin clients I have played with BIOS. Played with font and rendering settings of firefox. Downloaded and installed java6 fonts package. But there is no change. Any pointers? I do not think this is related to thin client set up but unfortunately I do not have hardware to test this out and I can not run this application anywhere else as it is running through vpn-wan only accessible from my site. -- Regards, Sudev Barar Read http://blog.sudev.in for topics ranging from here to there. ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22-24, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
