You don't see any weird font rendering problems with this combination? |
| 18 |
I've been using nvidia-glx on xorg-server-1.0.x but I've had problems |

with font rendering off and on. From reading the bug reports on b.g.o |

I think that's the manner in which the ABI mismatch typically |
| 21 |
manifests itself. |
