What can I do to get this bug out of invalid state. If you google "font corruption ubuntu 13.10" quite a few people are reporting it. It's pretty nasty as it affects every piece of software and makes font rendering unreadable. It must be an intel issue and if that's the case it'd be best to go to an older driver (13.04) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1227569 Title: individual characters frequently corrupted Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Since upgrading to saucy, I've had individual characters render improperly. Unfortunately, taking a screenshot clears the corruption. Selecting the text, scrolling in the terminal (which I imagine redraws anew instead of scrolling a rendered pane), or any number of things that would trigger a re-display of a glyph seems to clear it. Incidentally I see occasional corrupted glyphs appear in this text input box as I type, and they will appear with one keystroke and disappear with the next. I am fairly confident I could reproduce as I go. I filed this against pango because that's what I think of as responsible for this sort of thing. Screenshot attached.
