I can understand how this happened since Xft is relatively new ... code before documentation. However, it did take me a while to figure out just what was happening and that took looking at a number of files and packages. I am still figuring other stuff out but it is through trial and error but I should not need to do this. I hope you put some presure on the appropriate people to upgrade the documentation for the next release. BTW, you should consider putting that long email you wrote into the documentation. It is a good explanation of what is going on with fonts. Gene -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
