I just upgraded from RedHat 9 to Fedora Core 1 by using apt-get (wow, it was easy, I was impressed). Unfortunatelly I don't really like how gnome-terminal looks in Fedora. I used the default settings in RedHat 9 and I still use the default settings in Fedora, so the selected font in gnome-terminal is "Luxi Mono", size 10. In RedHat 9, the spacing between lines was just fine and easy on the eyes. In Fedora, the lines are too squished together. The line spacing is fine in other applications, for example in Evolution which I'm using to write this e-mail or in Mozilla. If I ssh to a remote RedHat 9 box and run gnome-terminal on the Redhat box and display it on the Fedora box, it looks fine. If I copy the RedHat 9 gnome-terminal binary (gnome 2.2) to the Fedora box and run it locally, the spacing is too small, same as with the Fedora-provided 2.4 gnome-terminal. As a test, I created a new account on my box, so that no legacy settings remaining in my .gconf, .gnome, etc. directories could screw up the settings, but the problem remains. As I don't really want to post binaries to this mailing list, I have posted an example screenshot on my website. The upper window shows gnome-terminal running locally on the Fedora box (lines too squished together) while the lower windows is a gnome-terminal running on a remote RedHat 9 box and displayed on the local Fedora box (lines ok). http://home.amis.net/blaz/fedora-gnome-terminal.png Any idea how to fix this? I googled around, searched both the RedHat and Fedora mailing lists and also looked at Bugzilla, but found nothing.
