I can't reproduce; if I start gnome-terminal in vncviewer then it has the same fonts as my regular gnome-terminal. What is the output of "xrdb -query" on regular X and on your VNC X? Specifically the Xft.dpi value. xrdb -query on vnc Xft.dpi: 96 Xft.hinting: true Xft.hintstyle: hintmedium xrdb -query on X Xft.antialias: 1 Xft.dpi: 96.000000 Xft.hinting: 1 Xft.hintstyle: hintmedium Xft.rgba: none I now see that I'm also getting this message in the vnc log: Xlib: extension "RENDER" missing on display ":1.0". for some applications, but not for gnome-terminal. For example I get this when I start the system monitor which displays correctly. That's strange. Also, 8.0 shipped with an Xft bug causing huge memory leaks in all Xft apps when using a non-RENDER server - I wonder why you aren't seeing that? Does the gnome-terminal menubar also have smaller text than say the gnome-system-monitor menubar, or is it only the terminal area itself? What is the output of "rpm -q vte gnome-terminal Xft fontconfig freetype pango gtk2"? I'm just setting up vnc, so I probably just haven't noticed the memory leaks yet. (yikes! just watched system monitor in vnc ... leaks about 0.1 MB / sec) Is there a patch? Only the terminal area has a small font. The title, menu bars, menus and pop up dialogs look normal. vte-0.8.19-1 gnome-terminal-2.0.1-5 Xft-2.0-1 fontconfig-2.0-3 freetype-2.1.2-7 pango-1.1.1-1 gtk2-2.0.6-8 vnc-3.3.3r2-39 There is a patch for the Xft memory leak, but hasn't made it through the errata pipeline yet. It's just adding a couple of XDestroyImage() calls. I'm not sure what else to guess at here, adding some cc. Hi Kevin, Are you still seeing this? I don't know. This was submitted on RH8. I'm now on FC2 and don't have vnc set up at the moment. I'm going to install FC3 in the next few days and can play with vnc there. If it hasn't appeared to anyone else you can close this and I'll reopen it if I see it on a current system. |
