I can't use nouveau because the fonts are crappy on my setup. I switched to version current-updates of the nv driver, and found it to be more stable (but to still have the problem.) I then switched to Ubuntu 2d, and so far haven't had the issue reoccur. -- You received this bug notification

That's fine (and I will look into it), but did this deliberately change between 0.5.3r449 and 0.5.3r512? Surely there were patches in r449 that did not trip up buildpackage. Per my description, the buildpackage route worked fine on 0.5.3r449. Reopening just to get an answer for this. If yes then
