Public bug reported:
Ubunt 12.04 worked just flawlessly untill the latest update of the
system. All text is now displayed on a black background, making the
system unworkable. For the time being i have to switch back to using
windows, for i cannot wait untill this problem is fixed or to
investigate myself at the moment. I've attached a couple of screenshots
to show what happens. If possible please provide a quick work-around
untill this problem is fixed.
