Problem still exists in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with the following configuration: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2772] (rev 02)
graphic driver: Intel® 945G x86/MMX/SSE2 I used fix from #24 comment. But after using of hibernation instead of turning off the system this problem occured again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/782855 Title: missing pixels (horizontal lines) in font rendering Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Fedora: New Bug description: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel Since upgrading from Lucid to Natty, font rendering in firefox and some other apps is buggy. Certain letters in certain fonts will be missing pixels from horizontal lines through certain letters. For instance, in the screenshot I'm about to attach from this bug report, all the 'o' characters are missing a line through the center, and 'n' are missing a line a little below center. It's different every time: if I restart firefox, different letters will be affected. Graphics is Intel 915GM (on a Sony Vaio TX650). I don't know that it's the X driver at fault, but most people who see the problem seem to think that it's related to the video driver rather than the font rendering libraries. Changing my set of installed fonts or changing to a different default browser font can make the problem better or worse, but never makes it go away entirely.
