I am also seeing this (on Karmic). Sometimes "still readable" is a stretch.
It goes away if antialiasing is disabled. Bitmap fonts are unaffected. GTK and QT widgets are affected, as is the web content in a firefox window. The web content in chromium nightlies from http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu is not, despite being antialiased. Setting the AccelMethod for the ati driver to "XAA" seems to have made the problem go away. My card is Radeon RV100 QY [Radeon 7000/VE] which seems to be the same as the original reporter's. -- Bad pixels & other artifacts on fonts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/383252 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
