Title:
  Font/image corruption after resume from hibernate

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xorg

  Since updating to Maverick I've noticed that the display becomes
  somewhat corrupted after resuming from hibernate on my laptop.  It
  looks like the X server's cached images have become corrupt (guess!).
  It starts out small, but after a few cycles text becomes totally
  unreadable.

  * It's mostly text which is corrupt, and each instance of the same character looks similarly garbled
  * All applications are affected - eg terminal, Firefox, chromium, apport-gtk, the GNOME menus
  * Changing the font (eg by changing to "Monochrome" from "Best shapes" in the Appearance Settings->Font makes many things look better, but revert to being unreadable after switching back
  * Changing the font size in the application (terminal, Firefox) also temporarily fixes the issue
  * Some images in Firefox also become garbled, but recover after a forced reload.

  I can confirm that the issue still happens with the mainline kernel
  (linux-image-3.4.0-999-generic_3.4.0-999.201204170501_amd64.deb).
