Some fonts still corrupt. This can be fixed once I change fonts rendering to High from Medium, but comes back if I set it back to medium. (657.01 KB, image/jpeg)

Description of problem:
I run an Athlon X2 4800+ on an 690G board (ATI x1250 onboard graphics). You can see from the pictures the corruption is very peculiar. 

Even more interesting is the fact that once I log in, all the windows (apps) that open are absolutely fine (not corrupted) and soon enough the whole screen becomes uncorrupt. I need to reload the bg image though.

Also the text seems to stay corrupted (check detail on bar). I can change the font rendering from Medium to Light or High and it goes away (grayscale) but comes back with medium. If I change it rgb it goes away.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Every boot


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot computer
2. View log in screen
3. Login to Gnome (not Classic)

Actual results:
Corruption of graphics with triangles missing from parts of the display. Fonts also corrupted


Expected results:
Clear picture with complete graphics

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2016-11-24 15:00:50 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '23'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 7 Fedora End Of Life 2016-12-20 17:58:07 UTC
Fedora 23 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-12-20. Fedora 23 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
