Thank you for your bug report. Which packages did you upgrade when the
issue started? (the /var/log/dpkg.log record provides useful information
there) Could you add your 'journalctl -b 0' log after getting the issue?

Title:
Incomplete display of text
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Ubuntu release: 20.04.1
* What is expected to happen.
All gui text elements to display complete words.
* What actually happens.
Since a recent update, gui text displays incompletely.
I'm posting this with some difficulty from the affected system, but
have noted similar issues being experienced by others and I share
links below:

https://askubuntu.com/questions/1332354/ubuntu-20-04-is-showing-a-bad-text
The issues above seem to suggest the the issue may lie with the AMD
graphics driver, although in my case I think I am using the 'radeon'
open source driver.
The issue occurs regardless of me use the current or previous kernel
version installed.
Please let me know if there is any more information that I can
provide, and I will do my best to get it to you.
Many thanks,
Mark.
