RE: [rdesktop-users] reversed font characters (redesktop 1.2)

[Dupras, B. <bd...@in...>]

An interesting thing to note - the screenshot below (taken with import =
-window root), the "My Network Places" icon is rendered properly, though =
I'm looking at it on my screen now with the "k" reversed.  I haven't =
touched the system since the screenshot was taken.  Weird.

Subject: [rdesktop-users] reversed font characters (redesktop 1.2)


I'm experiencing a weird problem in rdesktop - many font characters are =
being drawn in reverse.  For instance, "My Network Places" displays with =
the "k" reversed. =20

Here's my setup (all standard US English locale):

rdesktop client
---------------
IBM T30 Laptop
Redhat 8.0 (all patches, including kernel as of March 10, 2003)
1600x1200 screen resolution, 16 bit color
rdesktop 1.2 running at 1024x768


terminal server
---------------
VMWare 3.2.0 build 2230
VMWare patch from =
ftp://platan.vc.cvut.cz/pub/vmware/vmware-any-any-update24.tar.gz
Windows 2000 Server SP3 (all patches as of March 10, 2003)
VMWare Tools installed
800x600 screen resolution, 16 bit color
Terminal Services remote administration mode


to recreate the problem
-----------------------
connect with rdesktop to the terminal server
load notepad
type "Network" in the notepad window
select Format->font...
choose Arial, Regular, 8pt and hit OK.
the word Network now displays with the "k" reversed.
