[Touch-packages] [Bug 1969709] Re: libreoffice font selection unusably slow
I have a feeling this is something to do with the Nvidia driver. I first noticed this on my desktop PC which was using Mint 20 (based on Ubuntu 20.04), and the "Fresh" PPA of Libreoffice 7.3. I recently moved to Mint 21, based on Ubuntu 22.04. Mindful of this lagging issue in the font selection box, I tested the Mint 21 live USB, which comes with Libreoffice 21. There was no lag when booting from the USB; the font selection box scrolled normally. However, once Mint 21 was installed, and the Nvidia driver was installed from Driver Manager and used instead of Nouveau, then sure enough the font selection box started lagging again. I also experience no lagging on Mint 21 on my laptop, which is using the built-in Intel graphics chip. So I think this is some sort of rendering issue caused by Nvidia. Try it yourself; try booting into a Live USB of Ubuntu 22.04, make sure the graphics driver is still just Nouveau, and you should find the font selection box works normally. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to fontconfig in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1969709 Title: libreoffice font selection unusably slow Status in fontconfig package in Ubuntu: New Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Trying to scroll through the font list in the menu bar, I experience an unacceptable degree of lagging.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1969709] Re: libreoffice font selection unusably slow
There is something else going on with fontconfig. When you go to the fonts viewer "Fonts", some of the DejaVu font families are not shown correctly. Some are duplicated and others are not shown. The issue is solid repeatable. Install fonts-dejavu-extra and then launch "Fonts". I'm not sure this is a libreoffice issue.
