I almost cannot read the fonts on amule- Theyre soooo small!!!
« on: March 28, 2004, 10:01:43 PM »
Hi everybody. This is not really an amule related question. Im running Debian unstable and have been running amule 1.2.6 with no problem at all till now. But yesterday i apt upgraded my machineand sownloaded 2.0. Im running gnome 2.4.
The problem is that now i cant even read the fonts of amule as they are incredibly tiny. It doesn't happen in every application, but in some like xcdroast, amule... I was running localepurge till yesterday when i uninstalled it just if it had something to do. Please give me some tip i can start with!!! Thanks a lot for your time!

Hi everybody. I'm also running debian and since a dist-upgrade (mmmh about 4 weeks ago i think) i've got the same problem. That doesn't depend of the window manager neither the user (running amule with root, under kde gnome xfce4 or even with XFree86 alone does the same thing). I've also got these ugly fonts with xmms and some other applications, and it's really boring...

I realized that when amule is executed in a boot script (in a vnc server which has been started in a boot script too), and only like this, its fonts gets back beautiful ! I really don't understand :(

Does somebody knows about that ? thx

(& sorry for my bad english im french :p)

well
try to change your system fonts ;)
I had also ugly fonts for example running synaptic in the window where it shows all the things it does..
I went to terminal change the fonts there and restart X, I think that helped,
but I am really not sure...because I also had a fedora installation on a different partition so I also copyied some fonts.. maybe that did it...
sorry can't help you more...  :(
