Adam, thanks for testing, but your workaround doesn't seem to work for
me. Is it possible to use xrdb -load for a file that (apparently) has
already been loaded with xrdb -merge? Editing a file and calling xrdb
-load like you did doesn't change the issue for me.
Two more workarounds however are (since the problem is apparently with
XFT):
- Use non-FreeType font like in the following line:
URxvt.font: -misc-fixed-bold-r-normal-*-13-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
- Disable XFT (then you could leave FreeType font) with the following
~/.fonts.conf (correct the dir):
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM 'fonts.dtd'>
<fontconfig>
<dir>/home/kevin/.Fontmatrix/Activated</dir>
<match target="font">
<edit name="antialias" mode="assign">
<bool>false</bool>
</edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>
