[Bug 745608] Re: [915GM] font corruption on Intel GMA900

 

I installed the update package 2:2.14.0-4ubuntu7.2 from natty-proposed
and it seems to make things better. At least on my laptop (915/910) I
haven't noticed corruption since upgrading the package (but this may
change in time, I cannot be sure).

But it's different on my desktop (945), where the new package probably
reduces the problem, but it still appears in previous form after some
time. When I set Tiling=false it reduces corruption a lot, but there
still appears some like before. Although I did notice it only in Ubuntu
menu bar (submenus were fine). When I set DebugWait=true instead of
Tiling=false, some of the games started doing a lot of "hiccups" and
were practically unusable (I tried teeworlds from GetDeb). Some
corruption appeared but was very episodical, by now I have noticed it
only on GDM logon background image. I'd say, for me Tiling=false seemed
a better workaround, because it didn't ruin the gaming experience and I
didn't notice too much slowing down.
