Hi,
every second line in apps like thunderbird, firefox, konsole and kopete
the font looks blurred - tried several fonts.
somebody from the freetype mailing list suggested that the vertical line
pitch might be wrong.
found a formula on this site:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Xorg_and_Fonts to calculate the
widht/height from my tft (samsung x20)
...E.g. to use a dpi of 75 with a resolution of 1600x1200, the
calculation would be 25.4 * 1600 / 75 = 542 and 25.4 * 1200 / 75 = 406,
resulting in the setting DisplaySize 542 406....
my tft is using 1400x1050, and should be:
widht 474.13 used 474
hight 355.6 used 356
the log says:
(II) I810(0): My Monitor: Using hsync range of 60.00-66.32 kHz
(II) I810(0): My Monitor: Using vrefresh value of 60.00 Hz
(II) I810(0): Not using mode "1400x1050" (no mode of this name)
(--) I810(0): Virtual size is 1280x1024 (pitch 1280)
(**) I810(0): Built-in mode "1280x1024"
(**) I810(0): Display dimensions: (474, 356) mm
(**) I810(0): DPI set to (68, 73)
^- cant find these lines without using the DisplaySize parameter.
got no font problems with xorg-6.8.2 and i810 from cvs (20050716), used
855resolution to get 1400x1050
someone with the same problem made a screenshot, take a look at the konsole:
