| 16:04.38 | anddam | hello |
| 16:06.03 | anddam | I'm having a weird issue with font and ibook |
| 16:06.26 | anddam | I'm running lenny and if I turn off gdm the console font get all messed and becomes unreadable |
| 16:21.07 | anddam | what could it be due to? |
| 16:21.31 | Bor_Ed | ati mach64 graphics? |
| 16:23.59 | anddam | mm |
| 16:24.03 | anddam | it's a 9200SE |
| 16:24.25 | anddam | what's mach64 supposed to be? kernel module? |
| 16:33.44 | Bor_Ed | mach64 is _old_ ati chip which used to have such prob |
| 16:37.05 | anddam | has 9200SE that chip? |
| 16:37.14 | Bor_Ed | nope |
| 16:37.15 | anddam | but in that case other people with ibook would have reported |
| 16:37.19 | anddam | ok |
| 16:37.53 | Bor_Ed | I'm using 9200se myself here on debian without such prob... what X bit depth you have on conf? |
| 16:41.51 | anddam | mm 24 |
| 16:41.53 | anddam | let me check |
| 16:42.13 | anddam | 24 bpp |
| 16:42.43 | Bor_Ed | try dropping that to 16 or 15 and test again |
| 16:51.56 | anddam | well atm I've dropped gdm :-) |
| 16:51.56 | pahartik | anddam: Do you have reason to "turn off GDM"? |
| 16:52.05 | anddam | pahartik: apart not liking it? |
| 16:52.08 | anddam | no |
| 16:52.31 | anddam | the weird point is that font garbling happened only after gdm had loaded |
| 16:53.20 | anddam | that is system boot log appeared correctly before gdm, or xorg for that matters, was run |
| 16:53.46 | pahartik | anddam: Oh... |
| 16:53.58 | anddam | now I've removed it from default runlevel and rebooted, the font is fine and I'm using it |
| 16:54.10 | anddam | pahartik: about not liking gdm or about the weird point? |
| 16:54.34 | anddam | I'm flushing gdm as I'm gonna install gnustep |
| 16:56.32 | pahartik | anddam: I do not seem to have "GDM" running on iBook G4 at moment... So I just use "startx" and then let it run for ~90 days or more |
| 16:58.09 | anddam | pahartik: that is long test bench |
| 16:58.50 | anddam | I was only wondering what could have caused that issue, I use mainly OS X on this ibook but sometime I jump into debian |
| 16:59.20 | anddam | and this was a standard etch, I guess |
| 16:59.30 | pahartik | anddam: Until I want to reboot with new kernel or some problem occurs... |
| 16:59.35 | anddam | as I'm particularly enthusiast about gnome |
| 17:01.41 | pahartik | anddam: You could try another X11 server version or another kernel version, possibly with custom configuration |

| 17:29.59 | anddam | probably not worth it |
| 17:30.21 | anddam | I entered and exited xorg and console is just fine now, will try again with gdm later |
| 17:30.24 | anddam | thanks |
| 17:30.25 | anddam | bye |
