Description Behdad Esfahbod 2008-02-19 06:55:11 UTC 
From downstream: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=430627

Seems like vte differs in behavior from gtk+ still.
Comment 1 trondsg 2008-06-05 16:38:19 UTC 
I saw a report on this that claimed it to be fixed. However, the same problem exists in the latest Ubuntu release. The problem is that the hinting settings are ignored.
Comment 2 Behdad Esfahbod 2008-06-05 17:03:46 UTC 
I read that Ubuntu does crazy stuff, forcing antialiasing off on vte.  Not going to trust any reports about Ubuntu's default behavior.
Comment 3 trondsg 2008-06-06 10:12:25 UTC 
If you read that, then it's wrong. Gnome-terminal follows its own settings from its settings window. You can change it there. The problem is that, when it's set to antialias, the global hinting settings are ignored. (That could be the case without aa as well, but I didn't test that.)

> Not going to trust any reports about Ubuntu's default behavior.
That is true, they mess up even the simplest things when it comes to configuration files and such.

I'll test this on Zenwalk and post the results here.
Comment 4 trondsg 2008-06-09 12:06:06 UTC 
gnome-terminal-2.22.2 has removed the aa-setting and now follows the GTK setting.
The current behaviour is correct with gnome-terminal-2.22.2 and vte-0.16.14 running on Zenwalk.

If the redhat report does not use this version, but an older one, I think this is fixed.
