[Chong Yidong]

Giving a Lisp backtrace is not enough for us to fix a bug.  Please
provide exact instructions for reproducing the bug.  If it's due to a
.emacs file, please provide the smallest possible subset of the .emacs
file that causes the problem.

Thanks.

Hi Chong,

> Please provide exact instructions for reproducing the bug.

* emacs -Q
* M-x eval-expression <RET> (set-face-font 'default "-*-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-20-*-*-*-*-iso10646-*")

That works with "GNU Emacs 22.1.1".

With kind regards,
Christoph

I can't reproduce this on GNU/Linux (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version
2.12.9).  What system are you running on?

Kubuntu "Hardy Heron", M-x emacs-version says exactly the same. I
reverted to GNU Emacs 22.1.1, and try compiling/running again in a few
weeks.

Thanks for the report. Your report was against an old version of Emacs,
and the issue you describe could not be reproduced. The latest version
is 23.3. Please open new reports for any issues you have with the new
version.
