[Bug 383252] Re: Bad pixels & other artifacts on fonts
** Description changed:
Binary package hint: xorg
Fonts in a number of programs are broken, though still readable. I'm
using the default Ubuntu jaunty install, nothing fancy.

Programs where this commonly occurs are the desktop, gnome-terminal,
pidgin, and firefox. Xchat seems to be immune, for reasons I don't
understand.
In some places it's noticeably worse than others. Occasionally there are
large black lines running through the fonts. Rebooting does not make the
problem disappear.
This happens whether subpixel rendering is turned on or off.
