After thinking a bit more I suppose you're refering to antialiasing. On your planet "AA" may be a common acronym for "antialiasing", but that's the 1st time I see it used that way. Please get a look at http://www.acronymfinder.com/af-query.asp?String=exact&Acronym=AA 155 registered meanings. Eh eh, they mention "Acronym Abuse" - I should have thought of this myself... > See the gnome-terminal dependency, why I'm talking about fontconfig and > and think the package name fontconfig is explicit. Should you have written "antialiasing" directly it would have spared some more of my time. Thanks for your cooperation. > I'm just saying that this is not a bug but a configuration issue.

And so I'll have to go into this automatically-generated file, which weights 11KB on my system, and comment random things out of it ? What a useful suggestion... Should I assume that because "bitstream vera" is the 1st one in what looks like the definition of a "monospace" "family" it is the one used, and uses antialiasing ? There is no occuence of "antialiasing" or "aa" in this file anyway. If this feature is the source of the problem, how am I supposed to turn it off ? You should have understood by now that I don't know the internals of nowadays font-management... > I've already saying 4 times that this bug is a configuration issue.

YOU closed this bug with an insufficent reason. And THAT is unacceptable. -- Yann Dirson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | Why make M$-Bill richer & richer ?
