OK, on a TFT, and I do definitely remember others saying this, using anything other than the native resolution is not a "good thing". TFTs are designed to work best at their native resolution, and while they can support other resolutions, they are usually VERY sub-optimal at those resolutions. I have never seen a TFT monitor display cleanly at resolutions other than native.
Its better at other settings, not perfect.
It happens on all the operating systems on this computer
By that, then I assume you mean it also is a problem in Windows?
Yes, but only with the nvidia driver
Maybe someone else here has some thoughts on it.. but looking at the screen caps you've supplied... I'd say... if you're seeing fuzzy font rendering, it's much more likely to be a hardware issue, not software.
The fonts aren't fuzzy, its as if they are chopped up.
Make sure you're using DVI instead of VGA (if you can). If it's still "fuzzy' then.. can you swap it out for a different monitor as a test? Maybe a friend has a similar 19" TFT you can test with? Something like this will certainly help you nail down if it's the monitor... which given that you've stated it's the same in all OSes on that machine... well...
It is the same but only with the nvidia driver. It works fine with whatever driver comes with the operating system. I did try a different video card. It worked the same, fine with operating system drivers, bad with nvidia driver.
One last grasp at a possible solution... have you tried turning on full subpixel rendering?
No, I haven't tried that. How is it done? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
