Right, there is something on the system side (maybe font related?). Did you try with different themes and languages? I must admit I'm a little bit puzzled on that case and don't know where to look for (I tried again some update from karmic to lucid without any issue) :/ -- Latest update makes

No different languages, but I have changed the theme now and then. The theme is now Ambient, and the font, sans. However, since a brand new user also experiences the problem, it has to be something in the system-wide configuration Are there launcher settings in gconf-editor that could affect

In fact, it seems to be related to some clutter bad font rendering on some hardware. We can have a try to look at it too, but it seems that clutter doesn't like your driver (and the bug is open for more than a year). I'll still have a look with upstream, bt it seems the 2D launcher (which doesn't

New info, I tried turning off Desktop Effects, and it DID NOT resolve the issue, nor did it switch to the 2D launcher session. At least everything on the screen stayed the same. When I choose the 2D session from GDM, all fonts are readable, but the icons are much bigger, and the toolbar is just

The beta2 USB image appears to work fine when I boot from USB. Therefore it must be something in the local configuration - but what? It is apparently NOT user-specific, since I created a new user, who had the same problem. Any help would be appreciated On Sun, Apr 11, 2010 at 1:45 PM, Brent

If you disable direct rendering, you are using the 2D launcher, not the 3D, so it seems to come from the 3D one. I tried on Friday to reinstall my system and had no such issue. Did both of you change the font size? What happens on the live session with latest iso, do you hav the same issue? Can

I tried manually reverting the font size, with no effect. I cannot use the live session CD as it is a netbook, without a CD drive. :( I can confirm that the 2d launcher (when selected from GDM) works fine. FYI - this system was upgraded from Karmic, in the normal way - it is not a fresh install.

thanks for the screenshot. I can only see two things to provide more info: - you can create and boot from an usb disk with the live session (see the usb disk creator in system - administration). So, no need for a CD drive - try to switch to the guest session to see if it's a parameter in your

With one user, the guest session isn't offered (at least not in the shutdown menu). Therefore I created a new user, and Nebook Launcher displayed exactly the same (unreadable). At this point there WAS a guest session in the menu, so I tried it, but it uses the regular gnome menu, not the netbook
