I have now tested it and if I first install the VirtualBox Guest
Additions before I do the upgrade it is fine and I don't get this issue.

I've just hit this trying to do a wily to xenial upgrade in Virtualbox
on Xenial. This happened shortly after the font cache was regenerated.
If I switch to tty3 with ALT+F3 and back to tty2 everything is back to
normal (this wasn't immediate, 3-5 minutes later).
After this occurred, I switched

I installed from the same ISO and during a 'dist-upgrade' it happened
again...

Actually, just fixed the issue with installing 'python-apport' so should
hopefully have the logs with you shortly...
** Tags added: apport-collected
** Description changed:
Sorry to be so vague in the Title/Summary, but I really just don't know
how to describe it... I installed Ubuntu GNOME
I have now rebooted it and all seems well except for when running 'sudo
apt-get dist-upgrade' I get the following error so I don't think that it
did finish:
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg
--configure -a' to correct the problem.

Ah, but I have a slight problem, running that command just tells me that
the "dpkg: error: dpkg status database is locked by another process"...
But I get a similar error if I try to install the package I need to run
python-collect so I think that the log extraction will need to be more
manual...
I don't think that the dist-upgrade finished... And I didn't actually
shut it down, I just saved its state... But I will try and manually
power it down, and then see what I can do about the logs...

well that is indeed strange! perhaps a graphics driver update or
something caused the glitch, there has been a new kernel since beta 1
was released.
Did the dist-upgrade finish? Does this persist after reboot?
Can you attach logs (and run apport-collect)
