[Bug 766510] [NEW] Fonts and UI elements have artifacts around them and look bad

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I did a fresh install of the 11.04 beta on a new Intel Sandy Bridge
system with integrated graphics. The overall problem is that UI elements
that are drawn just look bad, especially around the edges. If you look
at the attached screenshot you can see the problem in the fonts,
especially when they are not just black against a white background. Also
you can see a bad looking halo around the mouse cursor. And look at the
icons in the upper right of the screen.
