Question on font rendering
Posted: 10 Jan 2011, 12:27
Greetings,
I am thoroughly enjoying the porteus distribution. May it live long and prosper.
My question:
I have observed a noticeable difference in display font rendering from remix-v08 to remix-v09 to porteous. I have changed nothing in my setup except moving from one iso to the next, so the change must be in the iso itself. I much prefer the rendering as done in remix-08 and am wondering how I might restore it.
Someone earlier (before the threads were deleted from the slax forum) suggested some cli commands which seemed directed to changing the default screen dpi. These had some effect but did not truly solve the problem. (My apologies I cannot remember the commands and the thread is no longer available.). My monitor is 1650 x 1050 dpi.
Any advice or comment will be most appreciated.
Thank you and best regards,
