[Bug 1510660] Re: Screen icons and text corrupted after 15.10 upgrade
John Deakin, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available
from the very top line at the top of the page from
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D (the release
names are irrelevant for testing, and please do not test the daily
folder)? Install instructions are available at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds . This will allow
additional upstream developers to examine the issue.
If the latest kernel did not allow you to test to the issue (ex. you couldn't boot into the OS) please make a comment in your report about this, and continue to test the next most recent kernel version until you can test to the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this issue is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon, next to the word Tags, located at the bottom of the report description:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-X.Y-rcZ
Where X, and Y are the first two numbers of the kernel version, and Z is
the release candidate number if it exists.
If the mainline kernel does not fix the issue, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-X.Y-rcZ
Please note, an error to install the kernel does not fit the criteria of
kernel-bug-exists-upstream.
Once testing of the latest upstream kernel is complete, please mark this
report's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.
Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
Screen icons and text corrupted after 15.10 upgrade
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Since upgrading to 15.10 I am having trouble with most of the desktop
and other icons and some text. The problem seems to be that the screen
painting lines are out of synch.
This means that most of the icons on the desktop are almost unreadable
and spread laterally. Also PDF documents are unreadable. The raster
graphics that I have imported into Inkscape are unusable.
I am using a Dell Vostro 220 and Dell screens. The affect is the same
whether I use a wide screen or a more conventional profile.
