[Bug 558979] [NEW] Text display problems, random colorless/replacement charecters

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

so this major bug happened to me once before but i didn't do something
about it, i restarted my pc.

This is the second time, occurs arbitrarily! Some text become colorless,
cant be read!

please look at these images

and this video of the clock which i recorded
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZIPfSVx8oA

However this can be fixed(if that's the right word) temporarily by
restarting gdm or the PC

I'm not sure what this is caused by, but i attached the info of xorg,
some told me it might be from it

I seriously believe this must be solved before the final release, i've
asked over irc for help, all of them were just clueless! I'll keep this
updated if i get any other information that would help

good luck
