Nope. I installed libcairo2-1.8.10-5 from unstable, and it did not fix the display problem at https://secure.natpe.org/natpe/index.php?option=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Itemid=236 Like I said in my report, I think that this one is NOT related to 495620, becaues 495620 appeared to have been fixed already, the sites in question were fine, and none of the workarounds suggested for 495620 worked to fix the display problem reported in 593294. I think that the patch that you just uploaded in 1.8.10-5 was not necessary, because the driver problem had already been fixed. As I said, I was not experiencing that problem in 495620 anymore. This appears to be a totally new problem. Mark
