so question was asked from a previous dupe bug about repro steps. afaict, there are no specific repro steps and the specific letters which get corrupted seems random. But I've been using unity8 quite regularly, and I've seen this several times so doesn't seem infrequent.
Might be worth noting that once a letter gets corrupt it seems corrupted everywhere for that rendering - for instance on the power down prompt, the letter "f" is repeated in the word "off" in 2 different places - in one experience, no other letters were corrupted expect "f" in all 4 locations. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-desktop in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1583088 Title: Randomly corrupt characters in Unity8 Status in gnome-desktop package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in qtmir package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Corrupted characters in text rendering, mainly in Unity8 window titlebars.
