Subject: [users] impress problem - vanishing text (2.4/ubuntu)

A simple presentation using a custom animation (effect "falling in") 
often ends up with invisible text when running 2.4 under ubuntu 
(hardy), while it always seems to work ok under XP (also OOo 2.4). 
The exact behaviour depends critically on the font selected.

For example, the following trivial slideshow document uses dingbats 
as font and on ubuntu the first and last of its 3 lines disappear as 
the show runs leaving only the middle line.

(Although the available dingbat characters seem to differ on my XP, 
nevertheless, 3 lines of text appear and remain)

If I change to a font called ameruncn (nice, but I've no idea where 
it came from!) it's the middle line only that vanishes. Other fonts 
shows differing effects, like only part of the character dropping in, 
or characters disappearing in twos or threes as they take position. 
Sometimes there's an unpleasant effect when the line completes and 
the characters seem to shuffle sideways slightly. Some fonts do 
behave as expected.

All a bit weird, and making impress unusable for me under ubuntu at 
present: can anyone shed light please?
