[Bug 1516263] [NEW] Texts are not rendering properly

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

In a Ubuntu 16.04 Live session some letters are not showing at all, some
very white or bold. Sometimes hovering on them shows the original text,
sometimes blinking.

WORKAROUND: Install the nvidia proprietary drivers.
