Re: All Fonts White
Hi,
What graphics driver are you using? I had a similar problem on a Sawtooth with an ATI 9000 with the text displaying as a very light purple. The only solution I found was to use the NoAccel option for the "radeon" driver in my xorg.conf. Of course, after that I had a slow as molasses desktop.
Regards,
Dan
