Thanks for all your comments! I will definitely take note of yours, Richard, for the next time I reinstall Ubuntu (14.10), provided the issue still occurs. For 14.04, I fixed the problem with a symlink as described here: http://www.dzhang.com/blog/2014/03/20/darktable-and-nvidia-opencl-on-fedora

I found out that when this bug appears, what's actually happens is that there is a console hiding behind the GUI. When I type anything, then what I am actually typing is an input into the console. So for instance, when these corruptions appear, and I type the letter r (without pressing ALT-F2

Nice to know about the fix! Best shapes changes the overall appearance of fonts in Ubuntu a little, too, and they look somewhat better in subpixel smoothing. Hope there'll be a fix soon for this bug! -- Fonts corrupted on Openoffice menus and Lotus Notes 8.5 with nvidia, compiz, twinview and
