window text disappearing for most applications after unlock

[Benedikt Troester]

Hi!

I've created a thread a while ago about this:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/786146/text-partially-disappearing-in-many-applications-after-unlocking-on-xubuntu

Basically the second issue is still existing. Here are the details:
Ever since I updated to the new Xubuntu version (16) I have this behavior:
After unlocking I sometimes run into the scenario of disappearing text elements in some of my application windows. Most applications are effected (eg. thunar, xfce menues, thunderbird, terminal), others (eg. Chrome, Virtualbox) are not. The problem looks like this: http://i.stack.imgur.com/LorVH.png

What I tried:
refreshing fonts cache: fc-cache -f -v
xrefresh
restarting the window manager: xfwm4 --replace
switching tty
sudo restart lightdm
startxfce4

Also: I recently updated my Intel drivers in the hope of a fix, I will let you know if that helped.

After this bug was fixed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1568604 the issue worsened (as stated by the other poster in my thread). I assume they are related.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

So updating the intel drivers seems to have fixed this issue. Or did you guys fix the bug and I unknowingly installed an update for this?

This bug is still affecting me, it does not seem to have been resolved.

When the bug occurs typing in tty1-6 does not show up on screen but the commands still run.
