Thanks for the intrepid versions. I've just tested the i386 version in the same machine as this report was created (see attached files above).
No character corruption occurs anymore in my sampletable.txt in tty1 ... tty6. Correct characters seem to be displayed all the time. (Well I have not double checked every single character with a Unicode table. But those characters I happen to know by heart are correct and all other look correct to me) However, the characters previously corrupted appear in a different color now. While all characters, which worked before are displayed in some kind of grey, the "new" characters are displayed in white. Any explanation for this? The problem is already mentioned in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/bugs/303561 The setfont(8) man page mentions that only 8 instead of 16 can be displayed if a font has more than 256 glyphs. But I understand this affects the whole console and not only the last 256 glyphs. If this understanding is correct, the reason should not be that the "default grey" is no longer available, because it is still used for all "have always worked" characters. -- Non-ASCII characters get corrupted in framebuffer console https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/355057 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
