Very Computer

2. In terminal: a redisplay is necessary to see the text from: a make
for instance -I either switch desktops or drag the window out of sight
and slowly drag it back then all but the final line displays well. The
final line, the input/typing line is hash mostly verticle. (this makes
the
chance for typos pretty high, I type  v   e   r   y  carefully, no great
faults yet.

3. In KDE help - reading html sucks no matter what font I choose - it
appears
that font changes from the noraml base font can't be handled - links and
tiltles are verticle unstable fubar. The unstable part is intersting
trying
to mouse select text (to reverse colour and possibly improve readabiltiy
either garbles the text more OR displays it right!!?? sometimes
depending
on the direction of the selection. If I select from one direction on the
single
word it works -f rom the other it won't. If I select the paragraph
somestimes yes
and sometimes no.

4. Netscape - Similar problems to KDE help's htnl dispaly depeding one
the page.
Slashdot displays completely (and I've used prefs to change font and
size) but
not all the time It also sometimes needs drag slowly or swich desk. Othe
sites
with our without javascrippt on display really badly -esp ftp sites
which are often

I posted earlier, found solutions, implemented them and got
improvements! see below
Hooray.
I still have problems. ugh
1. Netscape GIMP and others: the menu and menu bars still display
unstable barcode-like hash

needs drag slowly or switch desk. Other sites with our without
JavaScript on display really badly -esp ftp sites which are often

totally unreadable.  Here's another interesting thing -dragging a window
past the bad text scambles the hash more and a distance of an inch or
more (17 inch NEC multisync 5fg)
 xfontsel doesn't appear to display any font except as vertical fubar

What I've so far
1. put 100 dpi before 75 in XF86Config added unscaled listing for as
well
and again in front as well.
2. Selected fonts that display well in fontmanager
3. Installed xfstt and freetype I have ttfonts that display well in
kedit
     and Kwrite title bar and many other locations including (sometimes-
     some fonts)

What I've got
Cyrix 133 - [Called 166]
Ati All-in-wonder pci 16 meg rage 128
     ( I have the r128 driver from Xfree86 3.3.6)
64 meg ram
running the latest(?) slackware

I think I have more than one problem.
Can I generally force apps to display a working font in their menus?
I can post link to a snapshot if that would help.

Thanks
