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 Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
