Strange, but I saw this too last night, but I was running the 2:2.7.99.1+git20090526.r1.8e942b70-0ubuntu0sarvatt driver, which I'd been running for several weeks without seeing the behavior, so I wonder if it might be due to something other than the driver?
Here are the things I installed/upgraded yesterday prior to noticing the regression: 2009-06-03 19:06:43 install gnuplot-nox <none> 4.2.5-2 2009-06-03 19:06:45 install libwxbase2.8-0 <none> 2.8.9.1-0ubuntu6 2009-06-03 19:06:45 install libwxgtk2.8-0 <none> 2.8.9.1-0ubuntu6 2009-06-03 19:06:47 install gnuplot-x11 <none> 4.2.5-2 2009-06-03 19:06:48 install gnuplot <none> 4.2.5-2 2009-06-03 19:06:49 install groff <none> 1.18.1.1-22build1 2009-06-03 19:06:50 install psutils <none> 1.17-26 2009-06-03 19:06:52 trigproc man-db 2.5.5-1build1 2.5.5-1build1 2009-06-03 19:07:00 startup packages configure 2009-06-03 19:07:00 configure gnuplot-nox 4.2.5-2 4.2.5-2 2009-06-03 19:07:00 configure libwxbase2.8-0 2.8.9.1-0ubuntu6 2.8.9.1-0ubuntu6 2009-06-03 19:07:01 configure libwxgtk2.8-0 2.8.9.1-0ubuntu6 2.8.9.1-0ubuntu6 2009-06-03 19:07:01 configure gnuplot-x11 4.2.5-2 4.2.5-2 2009-06-03 19:07:01 configure gnuplot 4.2.5-2 4.2.5-2 2009-06-03 19:07:01 configure groff 1.18.1.1-22build1 1.18.1.1-22build1 2009-06-03 19:07:01 configure psutils 1.17-26 1.17-26 2009-06-03 19:07:01 trigproc libc6 2.9-9ubuntu1 2.9-9ubuntu1 None of those leap out as me as an obvious candidate. psutils is the only thing close but that should only affect postscript docs, whereas I saw the corruption in regular HTML pages (launchpad in fact). Are you able to make the issue go away by downgrading -intel to 2.7.1? (Available in x-updates PPA) If that does not make the issue go away, can you review your /var/log/dpkg.log to see if there are other packages updated in the timeframe that might be candidates? ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged -- Text corruption with latest UXA-default Intel driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/383411 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
