the new code. The effect is the same as before: no output from
freetype.
Good idea; its probably not the blitter then. You should
still check that the blit routine is present in fblin4rev.c,
though.
> I suspect it's something other than the blitter. I put in some
more debugging probes, and see that no matter what size I set
for the font, I always get back the same font metrics. For example,
I have set sizes of 10, 12, 16, and 20 and always get back the
same info:
I haven't tested the freetype 2 code, perhaps you should
try using the older freetype 1 libs, and see whether this
still happens. Also, test with one of the .ttf files on the
distribution, I've checked them and they work with FT1.
