You don't need to restart X, but I suppose you also need to downgrade fontconfig-config and maybe libfontconfig1; this is what I did. In the meantime, Joss and me had discussed this in the thread starting at http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2008/11/msg00522.html. Unfortunately I forgot to CC [EMAIL PROTECTED] when I jumped in there, so here is the conclusion: after upgrading to 2.6.0-3, you need to "dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config" and enable bitmapped fonts there. Additionally, you need to run "fc-cache -fs" as root afterwards. Cheers, Sven -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
