[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1510660] Re: Screen icons and text corrupted after 15.10 upgrade
I had this problem as well, starting with the welcome screens during the install. I believe it is something wrong in the Xorg video driver. My video card is a Maxwell based nVidia GTX 750 Ti. Despite the menus being almost completely illegible, I was able to navigate to the Settings Manager / Additional Drivers and install the nVidia proprietary driver 352.63. Xorg driver is to blame. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1510660 Title: Screen icons and text corrupted after 15.10 upgrade Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Since upgrading to 15.10 I am having trouble with most of the desktop and other icons and some text.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1510660] Re: Screen icons and text corrupted after 15.10 upgrade
John Deakin, the next step is to fully reverse commit bisect from kernel 4.2 to 4.4-rc3 in order to identify the last bad commit, followed immediately by the first good one. Once this commit has been identified, then it may be reviewed as a candidate for backporting into your release. Could you please do this following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection#How_do_I_reverse_bisect_the_upstream_kernel.3F ? Please note, finding adjacent kernel versions is not fully commit bisecting. Thank you for your understanding.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1510660] Re: Screen icons and text corrupted after 15.10 upgrade
John Deakin, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available from the very top line at the top of the page from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D (the release names are irrelevant for testing, and please do not test the daily folder)? Install instructions are available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds . This will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. If the latest kernel did not allow you to test to the issue (ex. you couldn't boot into the OS) please make a comment in your report about this, and continue to test the next most recent kernel version until you can test to the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this issue is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon, next to the word Tags, located at the bottom of the report description: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-X.Y-rcZ Where X, and Y are the first two numbers of the kernel version, and Z is the release candidate number if it exists. If the mainline kernel does not fix the issue, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-X.Y-rcZ Please note, an error to install the kernel does not fit the criteria of kernel-bug-exists-upstream. Once testing of the latest upstream kernel is complete, please mark this report's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1510660 Title: Screen icons and text corrupted after 15.10 upgrade Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Since upgrading to 15.10 I am having trouble with most of the desktop and other icons and some text. The problem seems to be that the screen painting lines are out of synch. This means that most of the icons on the desktop are almost unreadable and spread laterally. Also PDF documents are unreadable. The raster graphics that I have imported into Inkscape are unusable. I am using a Dell Vostro 220 and Dell screens. The affect is the same whether I use a wide screen or a more conventional profile.
