kostas groutsis, given you have a different chipset, it will help
immensely if you filed a new report via a terminal:

ubuntu-bug xorg

Please ensure you have xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes
button for attaching additional debugging information.

Title:
  individual characters frequently corrupted

Status in xserver-xorg-video-intel package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Since upgrading to saucy, I've had individual characters render
  improperly.  Unfortunately, taking a screenshot clears the corruption.
  Selecting the text, scrolling in the terminal (which I imagine redraws
  anew instead of scrolling a rendered pane), or any number of things
  that would trigger a re-display of a glyph seems to clear it.
  Incidentally I see occasional corrupted glyphs appear in this text
  input box as I type, and they will appear with one keystroke and
  disappear with the next.  I am fairly confident I could reproduce as I
  go.

  I filed this against pango because that's what I think of as
  responsible for this sort of thing.

  Screenshot attached.
