Terminal shows corrupt texture sometimes when resuming the OS from a sleep state
Problem
Workaround: Press ctrl++ and ctrl+- (mac: cmd++, cmd+-) to zoom VS Code in and out which will do a complete redraw of the terminal. --- Repro: 1. Open a terminal, run some commands 2. Sleep system 3. Resume the system (I think the delay between 2 and 3 has to be a while) What happens exactly differs across machines, I've seen full black, full transparent and things like this: <img width="228" alt="screen shot 2019-03-01 at 10 54 08 am" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2193314/53659411-5b467c00-3c10-11e9-9185-a63b426ce26f.png"> It seems like both the main terminal canvas texture as well as the texture atlas textures can become corrupted.

Solution: Terminal shows corrupt texture sometimes when resuming the OS from a sleep state
Does this particular flavor of issue happen outside of Linux with NVIDIA Proprietary drivers? It does seem some people report issues with terminal resume on macOS, but NVIDIA's proprietary drivers on Linux seem to have an endemic issue with sleep/resume.
