[Bug 159434] Re: Unable to set legacy subpixel rendering
Is there any chance of reopening this bug for Hardy? I greatly prefer the old subpixel rendering method, and before the rendering patches were moved upstream, I could use my local.conf to enable the old method; however, as of fontconfig 2.5.0-2ubuntu2, I can no longer do that -- instead, I just get the following error upon running any app that uses fontconfig: Fontconfig warning: local.conf, line 4: invalid constant used : legacy Here's my local.conf: match target=font edit name=lcdfilter constlegacy/const /edit /match -- Unable to set legacy subpixel rendering https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159434 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for libcairo in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 159434] Re: Unable to set legacy subpixel rendering
Well, I'm glad I didn't decide to change any attributes of this bug myself. I followed the link to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13566 and discovered that the constant had been renamed to 'lcdlegacy'. I then tried that value in local.conf, and it claimed 'lcdlegacy' was invalid. Finally, I fetched the Ubuntu source and grepped for 'legacy', and found that the constant is named 'lcdfilterlegacy' in the Ubuntu packages. This subpixel hinting method needs to be presented as a debconf option, or at least documented in some /etc/fonts/conf.avail file. -- Unable to set legacy subpixel rendering https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159434 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for libcairo in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 159434] Re: Unable to set legacy subpixel rendering
Hey, I uploaded a new devel Cairo with the corrected patch to my PPA. Care to test it? I don't like the old style, of course, so I didn't. deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/towolf/ubuntu gutsy main But be aware that there's some other unstable stuff in my PPA. I suggest to only enable the repo for installing libcairo2 and then removing the source. -- Unable to set legacy subpixel rendering https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159434 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for libcairo in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Note that I dodn't upload the fontconfig patch, so the old naming you cited above should still be valid.

I've installed libcairo2_1.5.4-0ubuntu1~ppa1_i386.deb (which required libpixman-1-0, BTW) but it changes nothing. Can you test LCD subpixel rendering on your system with above settings in ~/.fonts.conf?
