[Touch-packages] [Bug 1446053] Re: Font corruption some characters suddenly not rendered after login or after a period of usage
The laptop is now on 15.10 and I have not seen the bug. It may have been fixed in 15.04, I can't remember it was so long ago since I did that upgrade. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1446053 Title: Font corruption some characters suddenly not rendered after login or after a period of usage Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: This has occurred multiple times on my machine (Dell Inspiron 13 7000 series laptop), it happens without warning.

In the past it has happened immediately after login, this time it happened after ~30 minutes usage from a cold boot. See attached screenshot.

The tools in the system tray and the power off menu are affected, as are nautilus, gedit, and application menus generally. Rolling over labels sometimes causes them to rener properly while the mouse is over them. Terminal is fine There is a workaround which is to change the font antialiasing settings with unity tweak tool, however this isn't a permanent fix - last time it was set to RGBA, so I changed it to Grayscale. This time it happened it was set to Grayscale and I set it to RGBA and it fixes it. I don't know enough to know whether this is a video driver issue, or a problem with gtk or what, so it's possible you may need to recategorise this defect. One other thing that may be useful info is that twiddling the antialiasing drop-down fixes and breaks the font rendering on the fly, when I see this problem.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1452171] [NEW] No password field appears after wake from sleep
Public bug reported: To reproduce, close laptop lid and allow to go to sleep. Some time later, open laptop lid. No password field appears and I can't unlock the screen, see attached screenshot. This only happens sometimes (maybe one in ten or fewer?). It seems very similar to another bug which is allegedly fixed, so I have raised this one. The mouse cursor moves. Ctrl-Alt-F1 to a terminal and sudo services restart lightdm restarts X but still results in no password field.
