I really don't know how to solve this on my own so I thought giving this site a chance. After upgrading to Lucid I ran into some problems. With some experimenting I came to a conclusion that if I enable subpixel smoothing on fonts the moment I start any other application not native to GTK+ (wine, openoffice, wxWidgets, ...) my X server crashes the same moment.

At first this seemed like something went wrong during installation. To cut the long story short, after 3 clean installations and whole bunch of experimenting the same thing happens all over again. Strange thing is... if I configure any other font smoothing besides subpixel, everything works like it should.

Any thoughs?

Could you please say which graphical card and driver are you using? Have you tried an alternative one or another version?

  • I am using proprietary divers for built-in nVidia 6150. It's the latest drivers suggested by Ubuntu. I have tried other proprietary driver version and the same thing happened. I though it was because I used other version than latest.
