[Bug 616393] New: konsole doesn't properly display man page - potential character set issue
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=616393 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=616393#c0 Summary: konsole doesn't properly display man page - potential character set issue Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: RC 1 Platform: i586 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Applications AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: pablo@blueoakdb.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Created an attachment (id=370908) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=370908) A snippet of the `man' page with errant text circled in red. User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 SUSE/3.6.3-1.2 Firefox/3.6.3 Howdy, I've configured konsole to use `SGI Screen, size 9' font (note, you must install `sgi-fonts'). When performing a `man fc-cache', I notice some highlighted words are missing characters or spaces after them - please see the attached .png What's interesting is if I `ssh' from my `openSUSE 11.1' machine to my `openSUSE 11.3 RC1' machine there's no issue: both are configured to use `SGI Screen, Size 9' font. This leads me to believe it may be a `konsole' issue. I'm attaching two .png's - one where I've highlighted some of the problem areas and another without the highlights. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Prerequisite ============ o Install `sgi-fonts' Recipe ====== 1. Start a `konsole' window 2. Settings > Edit Current Profile ... 3. Click `Appearance' tab and in `Font', click `Edit Font ...' and select `SGI Screen, size 9' Click `Ok' to return to `konsole' 4. Type `man fc-cache' Actual Results: Munged highlighted characters. Expected Results: Readable man page. ;) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Either I didn't implement the work-around properly or it's not working for me. I added the following to `~/.fonts.conf': <match target="pattern"> <test name="family" qual="any"> <string>screen</string> </test> <edit mode="assign" name="weight"> <const>medium</const> </edit> <edit mode="assign" name="embolden"> <bool>false</bool> </edit> </match> I logged out and logged back in and performing a `man ls', characters are still clipped. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
