http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=913425 --- Comment #2 from Tristan Miller --- Could also be a bug in the freedesktop.org Intel driver. (I'm using i915.) In addition to the missing characters, sometimes individual characters are just garbled. (Just like in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=37173 from freedesktop.org bug 20560 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20560 and in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=35720 of freedesktop.org bug 28151 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28151.) Occasionally the corruption extends to graphical elements of GTK+ applications, such as black streaks. I'll attach another screenshot. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I was able to work around the issue on one of the machines by installing an Nvidia card and switching to the proprietary Nvidia driver. This leads me to believe that the problem is in the X.Org Intel driver, not in glib or GTK+.

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=913425 --- Comment #6 from Tristan Miller --- OK, I've made the change you suggested and will see if this has any effect on the problem. It may be a while before I come back with an update, since the bug sometimes doesn't occur until the computer has been in heavy use for several days. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
