Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
Basically, text in Ubuntu tends not to draw quite right. Please see the attached screenshot (desktop1.png) for a visual. I've noticed this happening in Ubuntu, Thunderbird, and Eclipse (the main 3 programs I use). 1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu 11.04 2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center xorg 3) What you expected to happen The text to printer properly/legibly. 4) What happened instead The text does not always display properly.
