Subject: fonts messed up
Hi
after a recent upgrade (unstable) all my fonts are almost complitely
messed up.
I cannot use KDE since almost everything text is missing, and also gnome
is barely usable (most text disappear from menus and terminal in general)...
any clue please?
Lorenzo,
I had a similar problem following a recent testing upgrade. Only the
first word of a string of text would be displayed - the rest was
blank. I tracked the problem down to the Xorg nv driver. If I used
the Noaccel option, the font display was fine (but far too slow). The
vesa driver was also ok, but I am now using the binary driver from
nvidia, which does not exhibit the problem either.
actually I am using the nvidia binary driver (already last release)...
so the problem shouldn't be there should it?
here's an example of the problem

the blank part actually should contain text that disappeared after
scrolling and comes up again when scrolling back...
is it the same behavior?
thanks
Lorenzo
