I see it too (x86_64, AMD HD 4850). Plus system crashes

I haven't seen it lately with latest rawhide versions. I'll file a bug if it occurs again

Comment 4 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2009-10-12 14:15:59 UTC
Hello,

I've created bug #528496 as I'm still seeing font corruption running an up to date rawhide...

Comment 5 Matěj Cepl 2009-10-14 15:32:47 UTC
William, are you still able to reproduce this with the currently updated Rawihide, please? We would need information requested in the comment 2.

Comment 6 William Washco 2009-10-17 02:02:53 UTC
I am still able to reproduce this with the latest updates. I am adding the files now. Note, the Xorg log file is actually all 6 concatenated together. (0,1,2,3,4,5)
