I had *exactly* the (very well) described issues here:
o Really weird corrupted font artifacts.
o Bizarre semi-tiled blocks on my background screen.
Occurred after doing an upgrade of Ubuntu 20.04 on an Dell XPS 7590.
Running the suggested command:
sudo apt remove
The package being installed does not mean it is used. Xorg will use the
correct driver 'modesetting' by default.

Follow-up on my comment #22: I installed a HDMI plug to my Intel NUC.
Then removed the xserver-xorg-video-intel and 20-intel.conf. After
reboot the plug was detected and the visual artifacts were gone.

This bug is marked as "Won't Fix" because it won't be fixed. xserver-

I'm not sure how safe it would be to remove xserver-xorg-video-intel
from the Ubuntu archive
Why is it marked as Won't Fix? The obsolete package xserver-xorg-video-
intel is installed with the operating system. Please remove it.
