All appears to be working ok, except that the fonts are being rendered





incorrectly when using Xterm etc. The problem looks like the bitmaps that make up the fonts are being split down the middle and then reversed, causing a kind of mirrored effect to happen.





I'm guessing that this an endian issue somewhere, but I'm not quite sure where to look to solve it. Does anyone know which source files etc I would need to look at to change the endian-ness and get the fonts displayed correctly?






Try adding

Option "XaaNoScreenToScreenColorExpandFill"

and/or

Option "XaaNoCPUToScreenColorExpandFill"

These disable the acceleration of font writing.
