Public bug reported:
The following happens on a Dell D830 laptop with the nVidia Quadro 140:
After installing Hardy Release candidate, the login screen fonts for
entering the username and password looks fine. Then, I downloaded the
nvidia-glx-new package to make use of accelerated 3D. After rebooting
the machine, the font in the password box is extremely big. At first,
this seemed to be a duplicate of some other bugs reported here, but
changing the xorg.conf did not actually help the problem. After
reverting to the nv drivers and reconfiguring X, everything was back to
normal.
Maybe it is worth mentioning the system 15" screen has a resolution of
1680x1050, so its probably related to the high DPI?
Hardy had all updates applied as of the time of writing.
