This should be fixed when Emacs gets updated to 23.2 and built with gconf (and font-use-system-font set is set to non-nil.) No telling when that might happen, though: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/emacs23/+bug/588203
>From the News file ( http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/NEWS.23.2 ): ** Emacs compiles with Gconf support, if it is detected. Use the configure option --without-gconf to disable this. This is used by the `font-use-system-font' feature (see below). ** Font changes *** Emacs can use the system default monospaced font in Gnome. To enable this feature, set `font-use-system-font' to non-nil (it is nil by default). If the system default changes, Emacs changes also. This feature requires Gconf support, which is automatically included at compile-time if configure detects the gconf libraries (you can disable this with the configure option --without-gconf). *** On X11, Emacs reacts to Xft changes made by configuration tools, via the XSETTINGS mechanism. This includes antialias, hinting, hintstyle, RGBA, DPI and lcdfilter changes. -- emacs23 does not apply gnome appearance properties for fonts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/460683 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
