The browser thread reminded me that I've been having issues getting Render
support working in XFree86 4.x.  Has anyone had success with it when
running Xinerama?  When I've tried to do it, it has usually locked up the
X server.

A somewhat related issue is that I've had trouble with TrueType fonts
drawing improperly, since I've had to play some strange tricks to get
certain programs to understand that my displays have (nearly) square
pixels.

When I use TrueType fonts, they look to be about half as wide as they
should be.  On the other hand, if I remove the measures I've put in
(adding DisplaySize parameters to the Monitor sections in XF86Config),
many other applications act strangely.  gv renders postscript twice as
wide as it should, and I've Xine (DVD player) and other apps do similar
things.

Any thoughts, solutions, pointers, etc., appreciated..
