Pavak Paul: 1) Did this issue not occur in a release prior to 15.10? 2) What release will you be using going forward so we may focus on that? 3) Are your results in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1516263/comments/6 with the nouveau drivers? If so, do the nvidia drivers still WORKAROUND the issue?
** Description changed: - When I ran Ubuntu 15.10 from Live session I found some letters are not - showing at all, some very white or bold. Sometimes hovering on them - shows the original text, sometimes blinking. This often restarts xorg. + When I ran Ubuntu 15.10 from Live session I found some letters are not showing at all, some very white or bold.
