I'm able to reproduce this on a newly installed Lucid system. Guys, upstream changelog for rxvt-unicode version 9.07 indicates that patch mentioned by tremby already merged upstream. I've prepared packages (lucid, karmic) which could be installed from this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~zlj/+archive/ppa-experimental
I'd appreciate any feedback on that. The following .Xdefaults settings have fixed issue for me after installation of rxvt-unicode 9.07: urxvt.font: xft:DejaVu Sans Mono:pixelsize=12 urxvt.letterSpace: -1 ** Changed in: rxvt-unicode (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- rxvt-unicode: Excessive font spacing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309792 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
