Font corruption on jaunty on IBM Thinkpad R31 i830 video graphics. Intrepid has no such problem.
Attached is a screenshot showing defective characters running at the moment "AccelMethod" "uxa" on . Linux version 2.6.30-020630rc4-generic (r...@zinc) (gcc version 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7)) #020630rc4 SMP Fri May 1 09:06:03 UTC 2009 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82830 CGC [Chipset Graphics Controller] (rev 04) I've tried various System Preference Appearance Font selections however they all fail. Problem first started showing up on some updates before jaunty beta and has been there ever since. I tried narrowing it down. I'm not sure, but I expect it showed up about the time it was no longer necessary to do "NoAccel" on i830 and i845 Intel video graphics. After a few minutes things get unreadable and I dual boot back to Intrepid. It's a 1 gHz laptop which is quite usable on ubuntu for most purposes except jerky internet video. At this point in this entry "d" and "N" "J" "f" are just big black blotches.
