Description
I'm running vte 0.10.26 on a gentoo box. I have the following snippet in my .fonts.conf
<match target="font">
<test qual="any" name="family" compare="eq">
<string>
Kochi Gothic</string>
<string>
Kochi Mincho</string>
</test>
<test name="pixelsize" compare="less_eq">
<int>
17</int>
</test>
<test name="pixelsize" compare="more_eq">
<int>
10</int>
</test>
`<edit name="antialias" mode="assign">`
`<bool>`false`</bool>`
`</edit>`
</match>
If I load up a g-t or a vte by itself (using -f "Kochi Gothic 10") much of the normal term stuff works ok, but then occasionally text starts to go bonkers. On my system I can always reproduce it by running "man less" During this messed up state, it looks like characters are not drawn, and some strings are shifted to the right by quite a bit. If I use my mouse and select a block of text.. the correct text shows up as highlighted. But as soon as I deselect, the text jumps back to its messed up state.
Interestingly, if I comment out the above section of my .fonts.conf, all goes back to normal. I'm not sure if that means its a problem with Xft.
Also interestingly, if I use MS Gothic instead of Kochi Gothic, the problem disappears completely, regardless of whether I have antialiasing on or off.
