This workaround allows successful drawing of a Thunderbird page WITH text: $ MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1 thunderbird The corresponding command also works for Firefox. Other people have had this problem, it appears. Problem and workaround are chronicled here: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/history/336610 Do you have the same problem with v1.07? Yes, I have the exact same problem with Thunderbird 1.0.7, which is version 1.0.7-1.1.fc4 (20050929) as well as the same problem with Firefox 1.0.6 and now 1.0.7, which is version 1.0.7-1.1.fc4 (20050922). I have changed to a newer kernel since then and am using 2.6.12-1.1400_FC5 downloaded with yum from the Fedora repositories. Nothing self compiled or other than boringly Red Hat. This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd. Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and either update the target product or close it ? Thanks. Distribution against which this bug was reported is no longer supported; could you please reproduce this with the updated version of the currently supported distribution (Fedora Core 6, or Fedora 7, or Rawhide)? If this issue turns out to still be reproducible, please let us know in this bug report. If after a month's time we have not heard back from you, we will have to close this bug as CANTFIX. Setting status to NEEDINFO, and awaiting information from the reporter. Thanks in advance. This is not found in Thunderbird 1.5 or 2.0, nor in Firefox 1.5 or 2.0 versions. It was specific to 1.0.6 and 1.0.7 versions. You should close it. |
