I am sorry. It happens to me in both distribution: dev and web.
Is there any way of "uninstalling" a package through Universe ? I mean, can I uninstall NiceFonts for example ?
thanks,
mariano

Hi,
I will remove NiceFonts in future squeak-dev until these problems are fixed.

Hi,
I've switched to KDE4 and played with composite rendering. With last squeak dev images some fonts are not rendered: it seems to be interpreted as a transparent region by the composite manager (see screenshot). I've tested this on my two debian boxes.
This problem is not present in sq3.9.1-7075dev08.07.1 image, so I suppose it's due to NiceFont integration ?
Maybe it occurs more often with nice fonts, but it actually is a combined VM/image problem.
The VM prefers a 32 bit X visual (with alpha channel) over a 24 bit one. If a compositing window manager is used, the alpha channel is used for transparency, but the image generally does not care about the alpha channel in its frame buffer.
Does that mean there is some core location(s) where the alpha channel needs to be defaulting to full opacity but currently it is not?
Yes, that is where the transparent areas are under a compositing window manager. I also remember partly translucent menus in (old versions of) Croquet, and having to fix the alpha channel after taking a screenshot.

The olpc branch in the SVN repository has a fix for that, see
