Hi,
gdm-2.0.98.1-0_helix_5 uses font
"-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal-*-*-180-*-*-*-*-*-*" for greeter by default
(configured in gdm.conf configuration file). Alas, freely available helvetica
from adobe is only for iso-8859-1 encoding (and thus only greetings that
require non-latin1 font are displayed incorrectly). This patch makes gdm use
font "helvetica" of any foundry (XLib will use the font with locale's encoding
automatically).
It would be nice to have this patch applied in 1.4beta3...
Also, I suggest that postgres and pvm users may also be excluded
from the list of "faces to show".
Best regards,
-Vlad
