Title:
Text missing in GTK+ applications after suspend
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Occasionally when resuming from suspend, text is randomly missing in
GTK+ applications. Chrome and QT apps are unaffected. In my case it
doesn't occur very frequently, perhaps once a week at most. I
typically suspend my system every day and only reboot once or twice a
month.
It's not clear what is causing the problem. Based on the symptoms and
similar bug reports, it seems most likely a problem with xorg and/or
xserver-xorg-video-intel. It appears to be a new bug with 16.04 as I
never experienced this in 15.10.
I've noticed that the amount of missing text seems to vary depending
on the font and font size. Some fonts/sizes seem to be okay, while
with others there is no text on screen at all.
Font rendering settings also appear have an effect. The problem is
only visible with slight hinting and RGB sub pixel order. Disabling
anti-aliasing or changing either the hinting or sub pixel order to
anything else immediately renders all characters normally.
Switching to a virtual terminal and back again fixes the problem
(Ctrl+Alt+F1 then Ctrl+Alt+F7), as does restarting Xorg or logging
out.
