Since my upgrade to Jaunty, I have noticed that some text is not getting displayed - for example the Amarok Menu when it's minimised to the taskbar. Also text in my NXClient windows when it's connecting

I vaguely recall metacity --replace fixes these issues, and sure enough it seems to

What has happened, and what is the permanent fix ?

After using Windows for a while (tip to anyone using Linux - keep a working copy of Windows on dual-boot : you'll never regret it) it turned out to be a bug in the nVidia driver. Check out post #3 ....
