Sorry slightly incorrect I upgraded to linux v4.1-rc4.

I have done some testing and the display works correctly with clear text 
on Linux v4.0 but is distorted/corrupted on v4.1-rc1. (These are tagged 
releases from https://github.com/torvalds/linux).

I have had a look at the changes but I can't find anything that might 
cause the problem although I don't know much about this part of Linux.
Any ideas?

Simon
