Sounds like it's probably a problem with the font renderer or
something then. If it's a very reproducible problem you might
try not using truetype fonts. There have been problems with the
"freetype" and "xtt" renderers in the past. You might try using
the other one than you are using or not using them as a check.
Other than that, it sounds like someone that can reproduce this
will have to debug it. Since it doesn't work with either card
separately, it's sounding like it's not a driver problem or a
RAC problem.
