1 Greetings,
2
3 Last night I had to reboot my box because the screen had gone all
4 wonky. The reboot has resulted in an obviously different font being
5 used in terminal windows, emacs, etc, etc.
6
7 Comparing Xorg logs from Oct (the previous reboot) to now, Xorg has
8 been upgraded from 1.12.2 to 1.13.0. The logs are similar for approx
9 400 lines, then diverge. Below is shown the beginning of the log
10 file differences.
11
12 Any suggestions?
13
14 Thanks.
