Subject: fbdev: on-screen character cell corruption
Date: Wed, 31 Oct 2012 13:47:30 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LNX.2.01.1210311423100.29232@nerf07.vanv.qr> (raw)
Hi,
I have here a 9x16 font (for use with e.g. videor0x400 on KMS to get
80x25 tty size) that fbcon seems to have a problem correctly rendering.
When backspacing, the pixels from the character under the cursor not
only gets moved to one character cell to the left (as it should), but
the leftmost pixel column of the char also leaks to the rightmost pixel
column previous glyph.
LKML being a text/plain medium, I have taken pictures of the screen for
better understanding on how to reproduce, and have placed them at
http://inai.de/keyb/ . The font file is also provided there.
The kernel I run is 3.4.11 on x86_64. There is no known good version to
me (IOW, it is not a regression), as I just started using a 9x16 font
on fbcon.
