I can't recall what else you have eliminated as the cause of this rendering problem. Have you checked: 1. VT console. 2. Different terminal (urxvt, xterm, gnome terminal, konsole, etc.). 3. Different DE/Window Manager. Also may be worth trying Wayland as opposed to Xorg, in case the video card driver likes one more than the other.
