[SOLVED] GNOME is messed up after full system upgrade

yuvadm · 2014-03-06 09:59:54

I ran a full system upgrade today (last one was about 1-2 months ago) and it went smoothly.

Everything boots normally, and my default GNOME desktop also boots, but all the icons are messed up, as can be seen in this screenshot.

And worst, the overlay panel (e.g. when pressing the Windows key) is completely b0rked and unusable.

The GNOME desktop is the default one with no modifications that I know of. I tried searching for existing issues but didn't find any.

I'm running Intel Graphics on:

$ lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)

Any ideas?

After setting and re-setting my monitor resolution, things seem to fall back into place.

Looks like I'll use the scaling factor hack for a permanent fix.
