The latest fontconfig from CVS works on Solaris 9 and Redhat Linux 7.1. However, there is something odd going on. I've placed snapshots of the Mozilla startup for both these platforms at: ftp://ftp.thewrittenword.com/outgoing/fc Before taking the screenshot, I did the following: $ rm -rf ~/.mozilla .fonts.cache-1 $ mozilla-1.3.1 What's also odd is that after starting Mozilla for Solaris 9, I quit, removed ~/.mozilla, kept .fonts.cache-1, and restarted it. I got the following ftp://ftp.thewrittenword.com/outgoing/fc/mozilla-sol9.png.with.fonts-cache Why is mozilla-sol9.png.with.fonts-cache different than mozilla-sol9.png? I've also uploaded snapshots of: mozilla-hpux11i.png # Looks good mozilla-irix65.png # Looks like Solaris 9 mozilla-tru64-5.png Why the odd font for IRIX 6.5 and Solaris 9? I also ran some Qt programs linked against the new fontconfig and get the same font behaviour. -- albert chin (china@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
