And also used. I cannot remember why I disabled it after the problems began. The ~/.fonts.conf is attached. It evidently affects the fonts in the sense that they are not blurred now but still I'm getting different fonts on every start - for instance, sometimes I'm getting fonts without diacritics, in all cases they differ from usual firefox/thunderbird default fonts. >Unfortunately I'm not able to send a screenshot as xgrab results in a core dump and on a picture from camera it cannot be seen :-( > > If you have it installed, gimp will take screenshots. File/Acquire/Screen shot. --Alex PS I once go font weirdness after upgrading nvidia-driver to some new-ish version. I don't know that I got different fonts every time, but I got different fonts (or something that looked like it) from the previous version of nvidia-driver. In the end, I just downgraded to 1.0.8178_1 since the new version also had hideous interrupt problems which locked my machine. This may be *completely unrelated* to your problem!
