Hi
Wow, indeed, that's pretty horrifying. I also notice some odd
looking lines going through the minimize button and the window title bar,
are you using the X composite extension? What video card and driver are
you using? The snapshot you provided looks to me like a malfunctioning
attempt to antialias the displayed font which could be caused by either
the choice of a terrible font (but why would they even install one that
looks so bad?!?!?!), or some kind of windowing system or video driver
problem.
Cheers,
John Stone
