Package: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
Version: 1:1.0.1-4
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

* What led up to the situation?

I installed Debian testing powerpc64 on a PowerMac G5 with a NVIDIA
Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200 Ultra] (rev a1) graphics card (as
reported by lspci).

Running the X server results in no fonts being displayed at all, with
the exception of the default fixed font in xterm.  Something as simple
as "xterm -fa Monospace" also shows the problem (a blank window with
a cursor but no visible text), which denotes that the issue is quite
"down the dependency chain".

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
  ineffective)?

I uninstalled the xserver-xorg-video-nouveau package, to force the X
server to fallback to fbdev, and the issue went away.  The fonts are
now properly displayed.  But, of course, this is just a workaround and
not a solution; I'd like to use the real driver.

I also attempted to downgrade libxft and libfreetype6 to older versions
(libfreetype6_2.4.2-2.1+squeeze4_powerpc.deb and
libxft2_2.1.14-2_powerpc.deb) but this did not help.

The graphics driver seems to be at fault here.
