and so on...
Most of the fonts in icewm are not displayed or some strange symbols appear
instead. The menu appears, but the fonts used there are kinda strange (i think
they are not anti-aliased correctly, in some places the fonts are too thin).

What version of icewm does this occur on?
Which theme are you using?
Does this happen with the default themes?
Do you run XFS?
What version of Xfree86?

Comment 3 Andrei Ivanov 2003-09-18 04:21:03 UTC

icewm 1.2.13_pre2
metal2, but it happens on the other themes
no XFS
xfree 4.3.99.11, but it happened with 4.3.0 too

I also have some problems with the xml libraries, maybe this is related to it...

Does it happen on previous versions of IceWM?
do you run IceWM alone or as gnome WM?

i can not reproduce bug with 1.2.13pre2 and xfree 4.3.0-r3
which you state showed the same effect
with or w/o xfs

try reinstalling all your fonts
cannot find glyph indicates the character that is tried to be displayed is not found in that font

also check 'emerge -vp icewm' and make sure the appropriate configure options were chosen regarding anti aliasing of fonts (side note since you think that doesnt work either)

Comment 6 Andrei Ivanov 2003-09-25 06:49:43 UTC

So... I've got tired of this and reinstalled gentoo... all seems to work
fine now.
I really don't know what caused that...
Thanks for your patience.
