Title:
  Desktop screen and icon corruption

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  This is now the 3 rd time to reinstall 15.10.  Previously the 15.04 version has been re-installed.
  Under 15.04 the problem (bug) was restricted to the desktop background image in that after a few days and new updates loaded the screen became corrupted with the appearance of a view like looking through opaque reed glass. The blame was put on 'Variety' which was in use. Peter Levi terms this problem a 'low key bug'? It makes no difference whether 'Variety' is in use or not
  As the problem (bug) only affected the desktop background then it was workable.
  The new release of 15.10 was hoped to iron out the problem, but once again after receiving updates corruption began, and is much more severe in that icons become distorted when the mouse passes over them sections of text work become a. invisible or b. distorted to be unreadable.
  To date I have re-installed 15.10 four times. Everything is stable until I begin to accept updates. and the corruption begins.
  I have brought up this problem before since 23 rd October. 
  I cannot be the only individual suffering from this problem. I have two machines and the results are the same on both. I have changed monitors to no avail. 
  The programme was re-installed yesterday and is stable without any updates.
  I run also windows 10 on this machine but have experienced no problems with display or documents text/ icons
