** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gnome-session
  
- Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 LTS, upgraded from Dapper
+ Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 LTS, upgraded from Hardy
  gnome-session: 2.30.0-0ubuntu1
  libpango1.0-0: 1.28.0-0ubuntu2.1
  libcairo2: 1.8.10-2ubuntu1
  
- Every now and then I supose that the system does a maintenance checkup
+ Every now and then I suppose that the system does a maintenance checkup
  at (re)boot. Unfortunately I cannot see what is going on, because I only
  see squares. Esc does not help, ctrl-alt-backspace does not help either.
  There is no way I know how to skip this. The system is used for work and
  waiting costs precious time.
  
  I already reinstalled all Pango packages, but it does not help.
  
  Xorg.log says (clock is the same for all messages):
  
  gnome-session[1340]: Pango-WARNING: failed to create cairo scaled font, 
expect ugly output. the offending font is 'DejaVu Sans 9.9990234375'
  gnome-session[1340]: Pango-WARNING: font_face status is: <unknown error 
status>
  gnome-session[1340]: Pango-WARNING: scaled_font status is: out of memory
  gnome-session[1340]: Pango-WARNING: shaping failure, expect ugly output. 
shape-engine='BasicEngineFc', font='DejaVu Sans 9.9990234375', text='Lock

  gnome-session[1340]: Pango-WARNING: failed to create cairo scaled font,

  gnome-session[1340]: Pango-WARNING: font_face status is: <unknown error

  gnome-session[1340]: Pango-WARNING: shaping failure, expect ugly output.

  gnome-session[1340]: Pango-WARNING: failed to create cairo scaled font,

status>
  gnome-session[1340]: Pango-WARNING: scaled_font status is: out of memory
  
  For the rest I do not have font problems on that system.
  There is a font error. It seems to mention two different DejaVu Sans 
versions, but the version on the system is a link in 
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts to a font in the windows directory, 
which is mounted in fstab. Shouldn't gnome-session or pango fall back to 
another font? These messages should be readable.

+ Edit: not upgraded from Dapper, but from Hardy
