R. Steve McKown, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu
better.

To see if this is already resolved in Ubuntu, could you please test
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ and advise to the results?

** Description changed:

- Please see bug #1652585, as the symptoms reported there are the same I
- see.
+ Infrequently (once every 5-8 cycles), after a resume from suspend the font 
characters in all xterms, on my WM's status bar (I run DWM), and in GUI 
applications are mostly gone, as if most text characters have been rendered 
instead as a space or an underscore. All programs are otherwise responsive.
+ This problem never occurred under Ubuntu 14.04.
  
- This problem never occurred under Ubuntu 14.04.  The problem started
- occurring after a fresh install of 16.04 on the same hardware (my /home
- directory was carried over).  I'm current on updates and the symptoms
- have not changed since initial installation several months ago.
- 
- The problem occurs after a resume, but infrequently.  Maybe every 5th or
- 8th, but I haven't kept track.  Logging out and back in is enough to
- correct the problem.  The font characters in all xterms, on my WM's
- status bar (I run DWM), and in GUI applications are mostly gone, as if
- most text characters have been rendered instead as a space or an
- underscore.  All programs are otherwise responsive.  I'm a heavy xterm
- user, but I also usually have Thunderbird and Mozilla running.
- 
- I'm trying the xorg.conf workaround suggested in bug #1652585 but I
- haven't gone through enough suspend/resume cycles to know for sure if it
- works in my case.
- 
- I will be trying the latest daily live image, but I'm not sure I'll get
- enough runtime over the weekend to guarantee I see the problem before I
- have to revert to using the installed OS on this hardware (my daily
- driver).
+ WORKAROUND: Log out and back in.
