GTK+ and font oddness

Filed under: Geek — XorA @ 11:55 am

Well I upgraded my Z image to use gtk+ 2.10 and on the whole it seems to be running nicely apart from one small niggle.

When using the ttf-dejavu fonts I get thousands of alignment errors whenever an app loads. But I don’t actually think this is GTK+ as it affects rxvt as well. So I guess some lib for font handling on the chain changed :-(

Hopefully I can find the problem have have things running sweet again, as currently it takes anything from 5s to a minute to load an application.

  1. You can edit /etc/init.d/alignment.sh to change the value from ‘fixup + warn’ to ‘fixup’ (iirc change the ’3′ to ’5′), that will take the load of syslog.
