Stephen: I'm sorry but I really don't know. Got computer from employer.

Here is the output when doing
sudo lshw -class display

I might add that I'm using dual screens. Using single and dual screens were 
both (more or less) equally slow with jaunty xorg packages, and are both 
equally fast with Intrepid packages.
Also, I was running the jaunty xorg packages since the jaunty release date 
without being too bothered about CPU usage. Today however it sacked down 
completely.
Since downgrading Xorg uses between 5-10% CPU when I'm running a few 
applications and doing nothing.

This comment is for those novise like me who mainly want a working
system and are not primarilly looking to fix the bug.

I had the described problem after upgrading from Intrepid to Jaunty a
couple of weeks ago. Xorg always over 30% CPU and often over 80%, even
though I wasn't doing anything.

Running Dell Latitude E6400, 4 gig memory etc. I did try to kill power-
manager and settings-daemon without any result. No vino-server running.

The behavior disappeared when I downgraded all xserver-xorg-
packages back to the Intrepid version, and now the system is faster than
ever:-)

Since you who will go for this solution probably are as novice as me I
will outline just how I did the downgrade (which might not be the
standard way, I don't know).

edit the file /etc/apt/sourses.list (for instance sudo vim 
/etc/apt/sourses.list)
Comment out all lines including the word 'jaunty' (put # in front of the line)
#deb http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty main multiverse universe 
restricted
#deb-src http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty main multiverse universe 
restricted
#deb http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty-updates main multiverse 
universe restricted
#deb-src http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty-updates main multiverse 
universe restricted

add the following line (probably overkill with multiverse universe etc., I 
don't know)
deb http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ intrepid main multiverse universe 
restricted

save the file and do
sudo apt-get update

run aptitude (or your favourite package manager) and downgrade the following 
packages, including their dependencies (in my case 34 dependencies):
xserver-xorg
xserver-xorg-core
xserver-xorg-input-all
xserver-xorg-video-all

remember to uncomment the sources.list file and run 'sudo apt-get
update' to reset jaunty repositories (and do not update xserver packages
as suggested).

[Bug 248355] Re: Evince doesn't anti-alias graphics

2009-02-20 Thread odaagan
I've had the same problem for as long as I can remember (i.e. since 2006
or so). My solutions so far have been either to convert the document to
djvu-format (using any2djvu) or to read it in okular (former kpdf?),
which does not have this rendering problem.

In the attachement you see to the left the evince version and to the
right the okular version.
