This file describes various problems that have been encountered
in compiling, installing and running GNU Emacs.
* Characters are displayed as empty boxes or with wrong font under X.
This can occur when two different versions of FontConfig are used.
For example, XFree86 4.3.0 has one version and Gnome usually comes
with a newer version. Emacs compiled with --with-gtk will then use
the newer version. In most cases the problem can be temporarily
fixed by stopping the application that has the error (it can be
Emacs or any other application), removing ~/.fonts.cache-1,
and then start the application again.
If removing ~/.fonts.cache-1 and restarting doesn't help, the
application with problem must be recompiled with the same version
of FontConfig as the rest of the system uses. For KDE, it is
sufficient to recompile Qt.
* Process output truncated on Mac OS X (Carbon) when using pty's.
There appears to be a problem with the implementation of pty's on the
