I have removed xorg-x11-drv-intel thinking it would fall back to xorg-x11-drv-vesa but it seems to have fallen back to i915 from the kernel. Is this correct?
Anyway, the font corruption issue disappeared. What is the difference between using the driver from xorg-x11-drv-intel and the one from the kernel? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/745608 Title: [915GM] font corruption on Intel GMA900 Status in X.org xf86-video-intel: Confirmed Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Debian: Confirmed Bug description: Sometimes getting incomplete drawing of same glyphs of one font on whole screen.
