Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon
I am using the lcdlegacy filter for subpixel rendering of my fonts (see http://martin.ankerl.com/2009/01/22/beautiful-font-hinting-in-ubuntu-810 and bug #153521). After upgrade from intrepid to jaunty, my fonts were again all blurred. After a lot of digging I identified gnome-settings- daemon as the culprit: even if i put Xft.lcdfilter:lcdlegacy into my .Xresources (and into /etc/X11/Xresources/local-unblur-fonts), xrdb -query shows Xft.lcdfilter:lcddefault. This is done in 40_xres_lcddefault.patch. The only way to change this seems to be to recompile the package (or binary patching /usr/lib/gnome-settings- daemon-2.0/libxsettings.so, which I have done). Imho, gnome-settings- daemon should not force a specific setting of lcdfilter or at least respect the current setting. ** Affects: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gnome-settings-daemon does not respect setting of lcdfilter https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/368022 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
