[Bug 1509218] [NEW] Garbled text in Wily installer with GeForce GTX750

 

Public bug reported:

Just downloaded Wily final and tried to install it with the graphical
installer. I see some garbled text: there are usually pieces of text
missing (blocks) or text is replaced with white artifacts.  I was barely
able to go through the install by remembering the options. This is
visible also after rebooting to the fresh install of Ubuntu 15.10.
Installing nvidia-352 fixes this problem. Here is how the problem looks
like in the installer: http://imgur.com/MdlBGUU
