I can't recall what else you have eliminated as the cause of this rendering |
| 15 |
problem. Have you checked: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
1. VT console. |
| 18 |
2. Different terminal (urxvt, xterm, gnome terminal, konsole, etc.). |
| 19 |
3. Different DE/Window Manager. |

Also may be worth trying Wayland as opposed to Xorg, in case the video card |
| 22 |
driver likes one more than the other. |
