Description Ismail Donmez 2006-06-05 10:15:34 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.3)
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package
OS:                Linux

I enabled RGB subpixel hinting and konsole started to show red artifacts after using it some time. I will attach a screenshot showing the issue.

What font and font-size are you using?

Is there any way of quickly reproducing the problem?

I am using "Lucida Console" as font at size 10. Doing a cat bigfile.tar in 
konsole is enough to reproduce the problem.

Does changing any of these have any effect:?

- Font
- Font Size
- Hinting level (ie. "Full", "Medium" or "Slight") as set in KDE Control Center's font module
- Changing the hinting colour order (eg. selecting "BGR" instead of "RGB" in KDE Control Center)

Fixed in KDE4, thanks Robert!
