[Bug 326487] Re: [jaunty] fonts corrupts after a while
For intel users experiencing this, this is probably fixed by a bug in drm-intel in the linux kernel, and was fixed with 2.6.30-rc5 (2.6.30 is now released). For me upgrading the kernel fixed this problem.

[Bug 326487] Re: [jaunty] fonts corrupts after a while
It seems that this happens over a range of video cards (Radeon, i855, i830 from what I've seen here). That probably means it is not a driver issue. Would anyone care to test with Karmic, to see if it is fixed there? (daily live available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/ , alpha-2 should soon be at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/9.10/ ). If it is still a problem, it would be nice if somebody could compile a list of affected video cards. ** Tags added: corruption jaunty xorg -- [jaunty] fonts corrupts after a while https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/326487 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 326487] Re: [jaunty] fonts corrupts after a while
I am having the same problem on a Gateway Solo 1450. While researching this problem, I think I have found that the developers of the Intel driver have found a problem with the driver and fixed it. I have no idea when it will be available for an easy install on Ubuntu. I wish I could link to the bugtracking on this... I apologize..

[Bug 326487] Re: [jaunty] fonts corrupts after a while
Disabling acceleration (Option NoAccel true, in the Device section of xorg.conf) fixed it for me. I do not appear to have the font corruption problem anymore.

[Bug 326487] Re: [jaunty] fonts corrupts after a while
I've found that using only gray-scale anti-aliasing helps a lot on this problem. Only rarely do fonts get corrupted when using gray-scale AA, at least with my ATI X1400+radeon-driver+EXA. If I switch to sub-pixel AA (Jaunty default), it will happen a lot faster and the problem gets annoying. -- [jaunty] fonts corrupts after a while https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/326487 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi jacob-emcken, Thanks for including an image to demonstrate the issue. Could you also please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log or Xorg.0.log.old file from after reproducing this issue. If you've made any customizations to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf please attach that as well. [This is an automated message.

[Bug 326487] Re: [jaunty] fonts corrupts after a while
Hello ! Same problem on my PC with ATI Radeon 9200 SE RV280. It happened as soon as I have been able to activate normal visual effects (bug : https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/368219). When I go back to no visual effects (+ reboot), the problem does not occur as long as I don't activate again normal effects. Once it begins to happen, it seems to affect the display of one or more font characters and all occurence of these characters are corrupted. It's sometimes refreshed when changing display from an application to another, but not always. ** Attachment added: Corrupted characters in OOo Impress http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26530494/Pb_Police1-OOo-Impress.png -- [jaunty] fonts corrupts after a while https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/326487 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm seeing something similar. Certian characters get corrupted and stay that way. It's very persistent and a redraw does not fix it. Also happens without Compiz.

I haven't been able to reproduce this problem when using XAA- acceleration in the radeon driver.
