By changing the font to anything buy "Liberation mono" I get the problem fixed! Just noticed, GTK+ widget style in use I'd highly recommend not using that in KDE. It's provided primarily as a fallback style for qt/kde apps running under gnome to look more native. We've had intermittent reports of text disappearing over f12 development cycle, and oftentimes, it was attributed to video driver issues. What video hw/driver are you using? I am using Nouveau (nvidia) And switching to a different *KDE widget style* won't afftect the problem. Only changing the font away from Liberation Mono. It looks like this font, while claiming to be monospaced, for some reason actually isn't. I'd blame either qt for misrendering the font / miscomputing character widths or liberation-fonts for just being broken. We need to figure out which package is at fault. (See the second attachment - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=370123 - for evidence of that "not really monospaced" effect.) This bug has been triaged -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 12. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '12'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
