[Bug 998566] New: Wayland gnome session has blurry fonts
http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=998566 Bug ID: 998566 Summary: Wayland gnome session has blurry fonts Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org Assignee: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: tchvatal@suse.com QA Contact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- As per summary wayland session in ghome interprets poorly how fonts should look like and end up with no/wrong hinting. Mosly affect small fonts, so ie. notifications in the calendar area... I am not sure if the falut behind this is in Gnome/Xwayland due to the initialization, but the fonts look fine when launched with normal X session. Fontconfig even when queried on the wayland session provides correct fonts so it is not to blame. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I don't know either whom to blame here.
This is because Tomas missed to inform us if he was using a wayland application or an X application. However, even with an X application the font is rendered on the client side - must likely by a toolkit. Thus we also need to know whether this was a Gnome, Plasma, XFCE or whatever else application. The issue should be investigated on a toolkit level - if anything is missing in Xwayland that leads to this the graphics stack team can handle this. There is no use to pick X as the default culprit. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
