They appear little bit distorted in the gnome-terminal window and also on the GNOME menu. Also when I use the generic "vesa" driver instead of the compiled "via" driver under GNOME (xorg.conf) the fonts are very clear. What could be the cause of the problem? Thanks Last edited by kushalkoolwal; 02-10-2008 at 05:18 PM.
