@ MMlosh, I think you'd be fine using Xubuntu 12.04 LTS with Lionel's PPA to update 'abiword':

I don't know about the ' xfce4-volumed-pulse' update because I seldom use Xubuntu but I doubt that Lionel would shoot you if you were to send him a PM and ask.

@ Jonathan, I really don't think that Lubuntu should be too concerned about this. It's fixed in 12.10 and our 12.04 was not LTS, but I maintain over 40 individual PC's so I stuck with Ubuntu (using metacity) for 12.04 because it's supported until April 2017.

And this particular bug is hardware related! It seems to also be related to bug #960089 but it's not a true duplicate. Maybe they were just fixed at about the same time in Quantal? I first noticed both bugs were fixed shortly before Quantal was released.

It effects my Intel Atom 230 w/i945 graphics the worst but to a lesser degree also my Sempron LE-1250 w/nVidia C61 [GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a]. I also have an old VIA C7 w/P4M800 graphics that's not effected at all. But all were effected by bug #960089.

Stay tuned for more specific results of using Julien's staging ppa version, it's interesting ;^)
