[Bug 1468232] Re: Font corruption Intel Broadwell graphics

 

Thanks for the suggestions!

After BIOS update problem persists. Example is attached (note not
correctly displayed character "5").

Output of dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date:
JBET50WW (1.15 )
06/10/2015

I am aware that this problem is reported for Ubuntu 14.10 which is
getting close to end-of-life. The problem was before observed also for
15.04. I performed a downgrade in order to use the Intel graphics stack
(which again did not seem to change the problem).
