screenshot

Here is a screenshot taken just after install to hard drive, but still running from a live USB stick.

Comment 2 Peter F. Patel-Schneider 2011-03-08 21:41:38 UTC
The font problems appear to go away when booting from disk after install.

Comment 3 Peter F. Patel-Schneider 2011-03-09 14:52:15 UTC
Hmm, spoke too soon - they're back.

Screenshot attached.

Thanks for the bug report.  We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue.

Please add drm.debug=0x04 to the kernel command line, restart computer, and attach

* your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf, if available),
* X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log)
* output of the dmesg command, and
* system log (/var/log/messages)

to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link above.

We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information.

Thanks in advance.

Comment 6 Peter F. Patel-Schneider 2011-03-10 15:23:44 UTC
Hmm.

I blew the system away for today's Gnome 3 testing.

I don't see the same problem with the current setup.

I'll report if the problem crops up again.

Is this still an issue with f16 or f17 ?

Comment 14 Fedora End Of Life 2013-04-03 15:16:46 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)

I'm astonished that this hasn't been autoclosed already.
