Comment 6 for bug 1600642

I have the similar symptoms under LM 18 Cinnamon. I close my laptop lid to Suspend the system, and later when I resume the system text is messed up or missing. The password dialog has strange and missing text, and when I type my password the "dots" do not appear. Once I get logged on almost all menus (app & main) have no text. When I click Shut Down no text appears on any of the option buttons.

Doing <Alt>+<F2> and typing "r" to reset Cinnamon does not fix this. Removing the Hibernate option did not fix this. I don't see anything is the system logs that looks like a smoking gun.

Because my display is 1920 x 1080 I need the panel and menu fonts larger to be readable. Under Accessibility → Visual I have Large text turned ON. In addition in Linux Fonts → Font Settings → Text scaling factor I changed it from 1.0 to 1.3 (130%). I had made these changes under LMC 17.3 without any problems. There is an option to double the size of everything on extreme resolution screens. I tried it, and it was too much for my screen.

This happens several times a week. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

PS: Does anyone from LM look at these bug reports?
