Hi Glen, I can't really help on your problems with missing/extra pixels, but the kvt problem may be caused by you using a proportional width font (e.g times or helvetica). I noticed that my letters were all spaced out when I tried this. If you are using a proportional font, try using 'fixed' or 'clean' instead. Slightly off the subject, is it just me, or do the fonts under X and KDE look very poor? Sometimes, at point sizes about about 14, the font goes very blocky and pixelly. I installed all the fonts that come with the XF86 3.3.3. 1 dist too.

No matter though - I'm used to and happy with xterm. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
