Nafallo - the big display change for 4.4.0-9 was 'UBUNTU: SAUCE:
i915_bpo: Provide a backport driver for SKL, KBL & BXT graphics'. You'll
need to provide at least the output of lspci in order for me to tell if
you've got one of those displays. Can you boot to a functional kernel
and run
apport-collect 1552750

Bug description:
Hi Tim,
Text is getting corrupted in 4.4.0-9. I see changes have been made to
the i915 driver. Booting on ABI 8 fixes the corruption.
This is very similar to what I saw:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/584922/how-do-i-fix-fonts-not-
rendering-and-missing-letters
I would deem this release critical, if reproducible. I'm on Lenovo
x201.
Cheers,
Nafallo
