I was having the same issues as noted by others. First observed it in
Amarok. I have Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex on an older P4 machine.
Graphics card is a Nvidia GEFORCE2 MX 200. I can confirm that daveh's
solution worked for me on Amarok and OpenOffice but did not fix the Wine
Configuration menus.
I think the WINE text maybe a separate problem.
I had to tweak something or other to sort this out as well as the NVIDIA
tweak.
perhaps wineHQ would be a good place to start looking.

I confirm the bug with OO3. The text from the menus is gone.
It's all right with qt3 though.
I have a Geforce4 MX440 card with the nvidia-glx96 package installed, on
Intrepid (upgraded from hardy).
I will see what happens with the solution daveh proposed.

I think I found a solution
as stated in xorg.conf I updated the file
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
all problems (openoffice.org, wine(picassa), and diplay of videos ) seems to be
solved

If you reconfigure you aren't using the proprietary nvidia driver at
all.

TexasRanger,
Thank you so very much for sharing your solution. I have been looking

hadn't found a solution, I am so very grateful!

I added Option RenderAccel False in the Device section but it
didn't change the problem, then I added that in the Screen section and
it also changed nothing. Do I have to restart after changing the file?

Yes, you must log out and press alt + e to restart the X server, though
rebooting will also work.

I have been looking at several forums and doing a lot of Google-ing
about this bug these last few days and it seems to me that:
1. Many people have been affected by this with their legacy cards.
2. It manifests itself with many different applications..OOv3, Opera, K3b,
GoogleEarth
3. There
Also happens with Compiz turned off
Additionally, I saw a similar problem occur when scrolling in the system
monitor application (see screen shot)

k3b looses screen
TexasRanger,
Took your findings and applied them and it took care of all the problems I was
having in QT3 Apps. Works with compiz in Extra setting. I am deeply in your
debt for getting this figured out. I was just about to give up and remove
compiz, but now I don't have to.
Thank You very
The workaround from TexasRanger solved the problems with OO for me, but
not for Wine.

My symptom:
With Ubuntu Visual Effects set to Normal or Extra, OpenOffice menu text
disappeared.
After several days of experimentation, I can report the following:
- I am running Ubuntu 8.04 LTS with Ubuntu release of OpenOffice 2.4.1 and
Nvidia driver 96.43.09-0ubuntu1 graphics card driver.

Actually this affects all QT3 apps, not only the ones mentioned there.

Not a k3b issue, invalidating k3b task.
It is really up to nvidia as to when they release a fix. Since the
drivers are closed-source we can't really know what the problem exactly
is or when a fix will arrive.

Jonathan Thomas,
Thanks for the information. I really thought something was wrong with my
system since it is so old. Any idea when a fix will be out?
