Description Lionel Landwerlin 2014-04-14 08:01:30 UTC 
I just noticed missing letter in the UI.
In the attached screenshot, look at the date in the panel, as well as the window title.

Running on Intel Haswell with Mesa 10.1.
Comment 3 Allan Day 2014-04-14 08:14:58 UTC 
Is the date in the top bar the only place this happens?
Comment 4 Rui Matos 2014-04-14 08:41:33 UTC 
There have been reports of this in the past, see at least bug 647588 and bug 719916. Sounds like a driver bug but it's possible we're doing something silly.

Nop, it happens in the overview as well as the window title bar too.

Just adding that restarting the shell fixes the problem.
Could well be a driver problem...
