I've just upgraded from 7.10 to 8.04. The font rendering in gnome- terminal is now different without the user having changed anything. See the attached image. The text on the left is from a 7.10 screenshot of a gnome-terminal, the text on the right I've just typed into another gnome-terminal. I can't find a way to make the text revert in appearance. System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Fonts -> Rendering doesn't have an affect on gnome-terminal. It used to.
Something that's possibly related. Using the `Rendering' choices above, e.g. switching to Monochrome, results in an immediate change in font appearance elsewhere on the desktop, but not in any existing or new gnome-terminal windows. I'm sure you used to be able to make changes and see the effect on the fly in the gnome-terminal window; that's how I chose my preferred settings. This seems to be an 8.04 regression and I've yet to find a workaround. ** Attachment added: "font.png" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14202928/font.png -- Fonts in Gnome are awful in 8.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223791 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
