Bug description:
  Hi,

   I have upgraded to Kubuntu 15.10  and the upgrade went well without
  any problems. After the reboot I get a screen with completely garbled
  text. I have a Intel 4 series chipset Integrated controller.

  glxinfo | grep render gives:
  direct rendering: Yes
  OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) G45/G43
