It seems that the display is correct on my environment.
See the attachment.

timeless, can you provide the exact build option?

I tried the binary built with the option of timeless but
it displays properly on my environment.

I'm using Solaris 8 u3 both ja and C locale.

timeless, it seems that you use X server on Windows, right?
How about when you use the *native* Solaris desktop?

Comment 8

[nhottanscp]

Katakai san, please help this Solaris specific issue, thanks.

Comment 9

[Masaki Katakai]

timeless, I want to know the result when you use the *native* Solaris desktop.
Thanks.

Arg, that's _so_ much harder :( ... i'll try to get a build started ~4am and 
then check out the results before dinner when I can visit a lab box. [As 
mentioned in another bug, x-win32 is even worse than mix]

This doesn't happen w/ the X server installed on the lab boxes. Although I do 
get the following:

ok, bad: M/X,x-win32. good: Xsun, weirdX.

Comment 14

[Masaki Katakai]

I understand x-win32 has own font lints in x-win32 side.

How about when you put the same fonts into x-win32?
Does this solve this problem?

Comment 15

[Frank Tang]

what is x-win32 ?

Comment 16

[timeless]

http://www.starnet.com/products/ it's an x server for windows. right now i'm 
ahving build problems so i'll have to get back to this later :(.

Comment 17

[Roland Mainz]

Does this problem still exist ?

Comment 18

[Simon Montagu :smontagu]

No response for nearly 6 years, and to the best of my knowledge the build options in comment 6 are no longer supported anyway...
