[Bug 334916] [NEW] fonts in qt4 applications on Jaunty totally unreadable

[Caspar Clemens Mierau]

Public bug reported:

On an up to date Jaunty I am currently not able to use any qt4
application at all as the display of fonts is broken in a way that makes
them unreadable. Attached you'll find a screenshot showing qt4-config on
the left and Skype on the right side showing the same error.

The following might be of interest for you:

I am using the recommended nvidia accelerated driver version 180.
