Hello all, [please cc: me]
I have some X-related problems: 1. I get random images thrown all over the screen... if an html page is loading in the background, I'll portions of gifs/jpegs all over my screen, or the toolbars, scroll bars, etc... This happened when I tried 2.6.0-test1 on woody. 2.4 kernels worked fine. 2. On upgrading to sid, I couldn't get 1280x1024 (was much less, dunno how much, but the config file had the default as 1280x1024) for my Samsung SyncMaster 750s. The Horiz freq. in the XF86Config-4 was set to 28-50, whereas the monitor supports 30-70. But, on changing it to this value, I get the same effect as in (1) above, even with 2.4 kernels. On switching to a console and back to X, this problem goes away on 2.4-based kernels. 3. The fonts have been screwed since I upgraded to sid... They're larger, and just don't look as they used to earlier... helvetica's way bigger and the whole thing looks ugly. Some of them aren't even readable. I have xfs and xfs-xtt running and antialiasing on in KDE, though that shouldn't matter... even GNOME doesn't display fonts properly. The fonts directories have been changed in the X config file since woody, and fonts exist in the new as well as old locations.. I haven't tried pointing the paths to the older ones yet.
