Wahat exactly do you mean with “text mode”? Which terminal are you using, |
7 |
and—most importantly—which font? |

See it where? A (small) screenshot may help. |

Perhaps it is an overwide character, but the program that displays the text |

wants to adhere to a regular character width. I’ve had this issue in the |

Only the gear? Or also all the other symbols in the video player toolbar? |

Again, a nicely cropped screenshot may shed some light so we can better |
29 |
understand it. |

Did you set up a strange or very unusual DPI value for your font rendering? |
