I booted Kubuntu 19.10 daily (whatever I last tested so likely same as prior 
tests) on 
dell [optiplex] 960 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd 
5000/6000/7350/8350)

The ISSUE was re-created on this box.    `sudo lshw -C video` produces on this 
d960
  *-display                 
       description: VGA compatible controller
       product: Cedar [Radeon HD 5000/6000/7350/8350 Series]
       vendor: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI]
       physical id: 0
       bus info: pci@0000:01:00.0
       version: 00
       width: 64 bits
       clock: 33MHz
       capabilities: pm pciexpress msi vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom
       configuration: driver=radeon latency=0
       resources: irq:34 memory:e0000000-efffffff memory:f7de0000-f7dfffff 
ioport:dc00(size=256) memory:c0000-dffff

Thus it's likely an issue with the graphics card, or 'radeon' driver,
and assigned to the incorrect package...

`sudo lshw -C video` on the original dell 780 (optiplex) is
           *-display

I also saw on #ubuntu-bugs-announce earlier today
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1845865 which has a GIF of someone on
19.10, the issue to me looks related if not the same issue (I marked
that bug incomplete as no description was present, the GIF provided is
why I added it)

Bug description:
  19.10 QA-test 'live' on dell [optiplex] 780 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati
  cedar radeon hd 5000/6000/7350/8350)

  This was noticed on an fresh install last night (in setup post-install
  on same box), I had it occur on yesterday's daily ISO and it has
  occurred with today's daily ISO (see next line).  It's probably
  related to video card; I've seen other corrupted text too, but this is
  the easist to re-create..

  deb cdrom:[Kubuntu 19.10 _Eoan Ermine_ - Beta amd64 (20190928)]/ eoan
  main multiverse restricted universe

  Please refer picture - On right display look for mouse pointer; text
  being displayed "Details" looked corrupted.

  This issue is really minor, the purpose can be understood in this
  case, though other times it appeared to be multiple lines of text
  (12-15 words)
