Dear Zihao, dear All,

As far as I can see, the fix has been merged November 17, 2016. However, the 
issue still remains with the current build (December 29, 2016) in 
freerdp-nightly-binaries, maybe with a slight modification: It is particularly 
strong with highlighted bold fonts in small message boxes created by the 
Windows OS, for example, when copying and pasting files. The bold text does 
look like two copies of the same text with the second copy being moved two dots 
to the right and up. The two copies are not merged to one solid bold font, 
though. The May 30, 2016 version does not have that issue.

The host OS Debian Jessie is now running backports kernel 4.7.

It would be great to be able to switch back to the current version again.

Regards,

Michael

 Dear All,
 
 I am using freerdp nightly on PCs running Debian Jessie to  connect to WTS 
running Windows Server 2008 R2 with two  monitors. In general, that does work 
very well. I think that  nightly is required, because the 1.1.0 version of 
freerdp  included with Debian does not support multi monitor (and  smartcard 
pass through at the same time).
 
 Since a short while ago, I am getting odd pixels which are  not well aligned 
from time to time. When typing letters,  every n-th pixel seems to be off so 
the text does look a bit  like a QR-code. Moving a text editor window up and 
down  usually resolves the issue for the text already typed. With  new text in 
the same window, it may well happen again. With  bold text, the likelihood of 
the problem occurring seems to  be higher. Bold text in system messages is also 
often  misaligned.
 
 I did keep the nightly version of May 30, 2016. Reverting to  that version 
does solve the problem.
 
 Details are:
 - freerdp from deb http://pub.freerdp.com/repositories/deb/jessie/
 freerdp-nightly main
 - WTS running Red Hat QXL GPU driver 6.1.0.10020 dated  October 29, 2013
 - Debian Jessie running backports kernel, currently 4.6, as  that is required 
for multi monitor
 
 Can someone please inform me about what I can do to avoid  this while staying 
current in terms of the freerdp version?
 
 Regards,
 
 Michael
