[Bug 1003562] [NEW] xchat can't run perl scripts

Public bug reported: An xchat perl plugin (xchat-inputcount) that I've been using for quite a while now stopped working when I upgraded to Precise Pangolin -- Xchat.pm no longer exists. apt-file search Xchat.pm doesn't find it anywhere. Is there a workaround that will make perl plugins work

Actually with recent ubuntu updates it seems to be running again. I had to load the plugin explicitly once, but now it's auto-loading again. So I think this is fixed -- sorry for the bug spam. How do I mark this as fixed? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu

I see the problem almost (but not quite) exclusively in browsers (both firefox and webkit-based, though I don't run chrome on that machine); never in simple apps like xterm or emacs, or in gimp. Once it starts manifesting, its form will persist (e.g. if two lines of pixels are missing from

I have a theory that this may be related to heat. I almost never see bad fonts immediately after booting, but after a long session where the fan has been on a lot, the fonts will get worse and worse. If I suspend for a while, sometimes they get better, but I have seen corrupted fonts immediately
