On my Dell Precission 4700, when I resume from suspend or hibernate, I get corrupted fonts in cinnamon.
See picture here: http://minus.com/l2iwej4Qq4gN6

This does not happen in pure Gnome.

Reloading Cinnamon solves the problem.

1.7.3 of cinnamon/mutter. This works fine in 1.8 as I haven't encountered it again since. (Im on maya)

Thanks for the info.

I am on Nadia (14) but have only Cinnamon 1.6.7. I found that a Cinnamon
restart (Alt-F2 r) after resume from suspend seems to fix it - for now.

I am always a bit wary upgrading parts of anything - also not sure how I
would upgrade Cinnamon. Update Manager hasn't chosen to do it.

Please let us know if you can reproduce the issue in Cinnamon 1.8 or later.

@surruk51 You'll have to get it from the ppa or build the one from githubs master branch of get the one from mint's romeo repo.

Can this bug be re-opened, using the latest from PPA on Ubunty 13.04 it happens to me on almost every resume.

I can confirm that the issue still happens on Cinnamon 1.8.8... Not all the time, but often.

This is still happens on the latest Cinnamon making it quite useless when sent to sleep that I will have to be looking for another DE.

Why has this not been looked into?

It does not happen on my machine anymore.

I still get it, but I am not on the latest release yet.

However, Alt-F2 and then type R in the pop-up window and Cinnamon cleans
up its act and all is OK again.
This also fixes the stalled notification window that won't pop open to
show you the detail of the notifications it is reporting.

It's irritating,, but not a show stopper.

Still getting this on Mint 17.2, Cinnamon 2.6.13+rafaela and restarting Cinnamon with alt-f2, r doesn't help.
Intel drivers, in case that matters, but I believe it did the same with the NVidia drivers.

The corruption is even visible in the login screen after resuming. See attached image.
