WinForms text rendering seriously broken???

[Ernesto-2]

I've started having a problem with WinForms apps some weeks ago which I
attributed to my  modified Fedora installation. Now I found the same
problem in a fresh Ubuntu 9.10 install.

The problem is WinForms apps not showing text on labels, buttons and
most controls, like the MoMA screenshot attached.

This was tested with 3 different winforms apps, including the official
MoMA download. It was tested on Fedora (rawhide) and Ubuntu 9.10, both
with and without "desktop effects" enabled.

These were the constants: both Fedora and Ubuntu were 64 bit, both
notebooks with Intel 965 graphics, both default mono 2.4.3 install or SVN.

I think this is too much of a bug to go unreported until now, and I
still think this can be a problem with my installation. Can someone
please confirm or deny this?

Regards,
Ernesto

I saw this bug on bugzilla: http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=549882
I think it says that the problem is in the Intel Driver or something.

Yes. It was an Intel drivers' issue. Should have done some searching before.
Thanks!
