[Paraview] Paraview 3.6.1 on Fedora 12 legend labels overdrawn

[Jerome Soumagne]

I'm using Fedora 12 on my laptop and I don't see anything like this. 
I've tried in a few minutes to install the paraview version coming with 
Fedora, loading a simple dataset and displaying the legend, everything 
works fine. I've also a compiled version of paraview which works fine as 
well, no corrupted text.
There might be something going wrong with your graphic card driver, if 
you have an nvidia card, I would recommend you to install the official 
nvidia driver and not the "nouveau" driver coming with Fedora.
