I have one machine that has a relatively fresh install of 12.04 and one that I inherited. The terminal window in the inherited machine has a really weird font, and the regular one is what I would expect. Especially the behavior of the "m" character is messed up. Note: both of these machines are on the same KVM switch.
Here is what I've tried:
- MyUnity on both machines seem the same
- .bashrc on both machines seem similar in all the ways that would matter for this issue
- The terminal profiles on both machines are the default
- Here are the xrandr outputs:
Good xrandr:
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 4096 x 4096
VGA1 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 376mm x 301mm
1280x1024 60.0 + 76.0 75.0* 72.0 70.0
1152x864 75.0
1024x768 75.1 70.1 60.0
832x624 74.6
800x600 72.2 75.0 60.3
640x480 72.8 75.0 66.7 60.0
720x400 70.1
Bad xrandr:
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 8192 x 8192
DP-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP-2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP-3 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 376mm x 301mm
1280x1024 60.0*+ 76.0 75.0 72.0 70.0
1152x864 75.0
1024x768 75.0 70.1 60.0
800x600 75.0 72.2 60.3
640x480 75.0 72.8 59.9
Finally here are screenshots of both machines, it seems to really only be Terminal, I have askubuntu behind the terminal window for comparison:
Good screenshot:
Bad Screenshot:
Any thoughts as to what this might be?
