Since starting to use Gentoo, (pre-1.1), I have randomly had fonts in Mozilla come out... er.. squished :)
Basically, a line of text will have a single line of pixels missing, and will be squashed up, (horizontally), by 1 pixel. Selecting the text with the mouse fixes it, and it then remains fine. Scrolling a window appears to cause this effect.. but only if I scroll moderately fast. Very fast and it's fine.. very slowly and it's fine.
It's taken till now for me to bother bitching about this, as I kinda assumed it was a Xft/freetype/X problem, that would be fixed.
I have a Radeon 8500LE 128MB, but I don't think it's my graphics driver, as i've been through a few, namely: DRI, (a years worth of CVS), then ATI's new unified driver, (couple of versions).
Anyone seen this or have a clue why it happens?
Cheers, MAL
PS: I only see this in mozilla, GTK etc apps are fine, as are gnome apps.
