Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers usually do not have translators to read other languages for them. Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list, and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group. Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: 1. Starting Emacs 2. 'M-x Gnus' to start Gnus 3. I.E. I would to read de.comp.editoren I press , if the Cursor is in Group-Summary over this Group 4. At first, I see the failure in Subject, so it has 'German Umlaut', later in Article-Summary too The failure only is shown, so a 'German Umlaut' is together used with 'mö' also 'wö', for this Example by the 'm' also the 'w' the right edge of the Letters (m + w) shown 'cutted' - If I click one of the Letters with Mouse, so the Cursor is on it, the look is OK, if I click another one, the failure will return. So it looks like, the 'German Umlaut' over-paint the 'm' or the 'w' by edge. I attached a Test-Case and the result of 'M-x describe-char RET' by using the 'm' with 'ö', 'm' with 'o', 'w' with 'ö', 'w' with 'o' the 'ö' and the 'o'. Also I send a Text-file with a small Text including the Letters making the failure also them without failure. For looking, how its shown by me, look at followed Links so you can see this too... www.hobbyecke-pc.de/images/screensh1.png www.hobbyecke-pc.de/images/screensh2.png If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger, please include the output from the following gdb commands: `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
