After Installing a new Ubuntu, I start text like that when I try to open the settings screen, and terminal as well!

Any idea what could be the reason for this!

text not looking at ubuntu settings

enter image description here

sudo lshw -c video
 *-display

  • It is not in English ... what is the problem ? – Soren A Apr 19 '21 at 08:42
  • It's English but the text is somehow cropped. Instead of (Power) It shows(Powe) and soun instead of sounds – Ahmed Ibrahim Apr 19 '21 at 10:01
  • Try Wayland. Does it show the same problem? – ChanganAuto Apr 19 '21 at 11:44

    Many similar issues have been raised recently, without answers. Please add information on your graphical board to your post (use "edit") by running the following command: sudo lshw -c video and pasting the output in your question (formatted as code). Also report your specific Ubuntu version: lsb_release -a and kernel uname -a – vanadium Apr 19 '21 at 12:14
  • Worth trying: temporarily reboot with a previous kernel, see if the issue is also then. If not, you may want to block kernel updates for a while.
