[Bug 782855] Re: missing pixels (horizontal lines) in font rendering
I had the symptoms described above with Natty running on a Panasonic
Toughbook W4 with the display goodies below (from lspci) :
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03)
After the Oneiric upgrade, I could've sworn I saw it happen again once
or twice, but if I did, it's totally cleared up now -- not a line
missing for over a week -- and yes, I've been deliberately trying to
provoke it by switching up fonts in applications, changing sizes,
visiting "99 more annoying fonts", etc.
So I'd say the bug is gone.
btw I notice that I'm currently using a kernel module labelled i915, and
I believe Natty's autoselected kernel module was labelled i815. Could
be wrong about that, but maybe this is relevant?
