Yes, I have so, usually, but this does not change how text is  
displayed. I can switch tool-bar on or off and the line spacing does  
*not* change.

(tool-bar-mode 0)

I presume it's a typical Debian problem, I mean: improvement.


Try to find the system init file. Insert this statement

        (defadvice load (before debug-log activate)
          (message "(Tipp von Kai G) Lade jetzt: %s" (ad-get-arg 0)))

and then you'll see in *Messages* which Elisp files get loaded. One  
of these has the code that spreads the lines. A proof of my theory  
can be to launch GNU Emacs with -Q – then it, hopefully, does not  
load any improved or average init files, neither from the system nor  
from the user.


If this behaviour continues to display then I am pretty sure that X11  
has some ergonomic setting on. I've seen similiar things with X11  
(OpenWindows and CDE) on Solaris.
