Public bug reported:
I recently enabled the nvidia proprietary drivers and since then I'm
experiencing font glitches which are making it difficult for me to read
the text.
The glitch consist in slight "shadow" lines on the right or left of a
letter, in red or green.
I recently also installed wine and wine-staging, with their recommended
packages.
My graphic card is an optimus one, so I have both an nvidia and Intel
card. Unfortunately when I try to switch back to the Intel card, the
nouveau drivers are loaded instead, so I cannot test if reverting to
Intel can solve the glitch.
