** Description changed: Ubuntu 12.10 - On one particular machine running Ubuntu 12.10, almost every normal- - weight "T" in Ubuntu 15px at normal weight is rendered as a bold "S". - For example, "Text" is rendered as "Sext". + On one particular machine running Ubuntu 12.10, some text characters are + substituted for different characters. - The problem does not occur with any other font, size, weight, or - character. Only the "T" in Ubuntu 15px at normal weight. + On April 2, almost every normal-weight "T" in Ubuntu 15px at normal weight was rendered as a bold "S". For example, "Text" was rendered as "Sext". + https://launchpadlibrarian.net/135923753/sext.png - This problem occurs in multiple applications, including Thunderbird, - Tomboy, XChat, and Nautilus. It does not occur in LibreOffice (perhaps - because it does not use GTK?), or in Ubuntu's menu bar (perhaps because - it applies a bevel to the text?). + On April 3, that Ubuntu "T" returned to normal, but "k" in the font used + by Firefox when displaying Facebook wall posts was rendered as "d". For + example, "Mark" was rendered as "Mard". + + On April 4, the "k" returned to normal, but "p" in a particular sans-serif bold size was rendered as non-bold "ƒʹ", while "0" in a different sans-serif size was rendered as bold "g". + https://launchpadlibrarian.net/136149473/sext2.highlighted.png + + The machine was restarted between April 2nd and 3rd, but only suspended + between 3rd and 4th. + + This problem occurs in multiple applications, including Firefox, + Thunderbird, Tomboy, XChat, and Nautilus. It does not occur in + LibreOffice (perhaps because it does not use GTK?), or in Ubuntu's menu + bar (perhaps because it applies an inset to the text?). [Originally reported by Nick Tait.]
