Stan, Thanks for your response. Text widgets like email in Firefox and various sites, including bugzilla.redhat.com. Sigh. Except for the fact that this is a rawhide system, it's been quite stable. This system has a lot of the package groups installed. I did this to look for package and packagemanagement bugs. I did the group installs "with optional" right after I did the install. The problem didn't appear until later, a couple of weeks ago. I am sure it's something in the system because I rarely use Opera. I am a fairly heavy user of Firefox. They used to have an option for "Western" encoding but that has gone away and the view->text encoding seems adamant on "unicode", autodetect is off. Also, I removed as much of KDE related files (.kde* .config* .gtk* .cache* .gnome*) from my userid and then started kde freshly. Either I missed a file or it's not KDE. I'm going to try both with WindowMaker. The keyboard is a USB HP version and has "US" on the back... I haven't swapped out the keyboard yet though. I'm grasping at straws. Thanks again for your response.

I was just using firefox in a fully updated rawhide, and I didn't see this at all. What specifically do you mean by 'text windows'? I assume you mean input dialogs, like the url line, etc. . It is probably a setting you have somewhere, but I don't know where that would be. Have you looked in the configuration for firefox or opera to see if somehow something changed the defaults? _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to test-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
