Bug Description
Binary package hint: xorg
If I configure twinview with my laptops monitor and an external LCD, I get font corruption. Sometimes, usually while LibreOffice is already opened, and i open firefox, LibreOffice menu fonts get corrupted. Choosing "Subpixel smoothing (LCD)" as font rendering option leads into the font corruption problem. Closing and opening LibreOffice doesn't solve the problem.
WORKAROUND: Disabling compiz restores font appearance.
WORKAROUND: Disabling twinview restores fonts and i don't get font corruption at all.
WORKAROUND: Changing font rendering option to "Best shapes" corrects the problem.
Lotus Notes 8.5 FP1 also suffers this problem.

It seems it's related to twinview. If I configure twinview with my laptops monitor and an external LCD, I get font corruption. Disabling twinview restores fonts and i don't get font corruption at all.
