Comment 0 for bug 1039157

LP: #1039097 describes a problem with very tiny fonts on the login page. Somehow I managed to get logged into the desktop and after readjusting the monitor display level I have normal sized fonts (though afaict, not on the login page still). However, now I get lots of corruption in windows, with odd repainting, left over crud when windows are cycled forward, and no repaints of dialogs until the cursor moves over the window.

All of this started happening with the latest (i.e. today's) updates to 12.10. Yesterday, running 12.10 on the same machine worked just fine. As described in LP: #1039097, this is in a 12.10 host running in Fusion 4.1 on OS X 10.6. I do have 3D acceleration enabled for the guest.
