[Bug 406583] New: Fonts fallback with external monitor
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=406583 Summary: Fonts fallback with external monitor Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: sndirsch@novell.com ReportedBy: jw@novell.com QAContact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com CC: behlert@novell.com Blocks: 357354 Found By: --- lenovo x60s, KDE-3.5.7 on openSUSE 11.0 When the xserver is restarted with an external monitor connected to VGA I get quite different fonts. It appears to be a tiny default font. The external monitor is not configured in xorg.conf, it is a samsung syncmaster 226bw supporting 1680x1050, whereas the LVDS of the X60s is at 024x768. Using a smaller font with a bigger monitor is not helpful. My workaround is to disconnect the monitor during X-server start, and connect it only later. compare attached screenshots. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

After doing this, the external display will use fonts which have the same height in pixels as the internal display which might be what you want. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
