Bug Description

On the version 10.04 of ubuntu, The never winter night game started to trim off most of the displaying characters. For example, when starting the game all the button only have the first characters shown and the rest is not displayed. It is the same trough the game as most dialogs act the same. Sometime we can see flickering text but it happen at random time.

Follow here my lspci and glxinfo for the help. My graphics card is a Radeon X1650pro

On the version 10.04 of ubuntu, The never winter night game started to trim off most of the displaying characters. For example, when starting the game all the button only have the first characters shown and the rest is not displayed. It is the same trough the game as most dialogs act the same. Sometime we can see flickering text but it happen at random time.

Follow here my lspci and glxinfo for the help. My graphics card is a Radeon X1650pro

Hi Pascal,

This bug was reported against an earlier version of Ubuntu, can you
test if it still occurs on Lucid?

Please note we also provide technical support for older versions of
Ubuntu, but not in the bug tracker. Instead, to raise the issue through
normal support channels, please see:

    http://www.ubuntu.com/support

If you are the original reporter and can still reproduce the issue on
Lucid, please run the following command to refresh the report:

  apport-collect 572748

If you are not the original reporter, please file a new bug report, so
we can work with you as the original reporter instead (you can reference
bug 572748 in your report if you think it may be related):

  ubuntu-bug xorg

If by chance you can no longer reproduce the issue on Lucid or if you
feel it is no longer relevant, please mark the bug report 'Fix Released'
or 'Invalid' as appropriate, at the following URL:
