I have just installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS as a primary ext4 partition (as a sole OS) and set the swap partition over double my RAM which was 3 GB (Swap partition is currently 10 GB).



Fonts and texts are just garbled after resuming from hibernation. I was wondering if there is an incompatibility with my graphic card driver or something else?

I have the Intel GM45 display driver chipset for graphics.

After upgrading my RAM modules to dual channel (8GB) on my Inspiron laptop, the persisting problem seems to be gone away automatically after a couple of weeks. Therefore, I assume, the garbled font problem was basically nothing than a low memory allocation after hibernation (or generally any memory consuming task like using Matlab, etc).



Ubuntu automatically changed my 10 GB swap to 13 GB and all seems fine so far.
