The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

Re: Font compression and supporting commercial software

Sure, why not? And if someone complains of a problem, someone else on
debian-user will remember the posting.

This might be a configuration problem, too. If not, it's a good reason
for using ggi (the generic graphics interface, which lives in the kernel)
in the X server. That would give you a hook for fixing things when you drop
out of graphics mode. Work on GGI continues.

> Don't you think it is the reason to go for commercial X server?

Did you test any commercial X servers to see if they solve the problem?
Evaluation versions of several of them are available. Their support might
be no better than saying "get another VGA card".

	Thanks
