[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1501658] Re: Missing fonts and flickering font rendering
Brett Stevens, to clarify your Description: >"After installing xorg-edgers/ppa and applying the newest nvidia drivers with >intel microcode the font issue disappears." If you just change to the nvidia drivers from the Ubuntu repositories as outlined in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia (not install xorg-edgers PPA or install microcode) is the issue still reproducible? ** Tags added: latest-bios-2304 ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Low => Medium ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1501658 Title: Missing fonts and flickering font rendering To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1501658/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Brett Stevens, could you please run the following command from a terminal as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xorg 1501658 Please ensure you have the package xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes button for attaching additional debugging information. When reporting bugs in the future please use apport by using 'ubuntu- bug' and the name of the package affected.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1501658] Re: Missing fonts and flickering font rendering
@Martin Ok, I tried the latest Ubuntu Mate ISO from oct 02/2015 Same problem in live mode... tweaked some settings (rgb, vrgb, etc... ) VRGB is better but not perfect at all... Installed to SSD and boot, fonts still messed, installed Intel microde, rebooted and problem persisted. Another reboot, same thing. The only way to fix was installing the nvidia drivers, however on first boot after nvidia, system froze, not able to even use keyboard or mouse... but fonts were OK Time for a second installation; with nvidia drivers system is working fine. It seems to be a very disturbing bug, mainly in live mode. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1501658 Title: Missing fonts and flickering font rendering To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1501658/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
