Ah...

well, it's been there ever since I got IMSTT acceleration working (Xpmac) -
the setup, otherwise, is the same as on my other machines (atyfb).

**Only** seems to happen on the KDE splash/login screen (otherwise we seem
to be OK).  Haven't tried other desktops/things that write directly to the
root window (which, I guess, is the difference).

When the system is first brought up the RedHat logo is all black ... as is
the other icon (the login button)...  when you subsequently log out of X
these two items are filled with colour-noise.

I've a feeling it might be a known bug - but can't find a reference to the
mail describing it.  It's not a major problem - just slightly naff-looking.

ciao,
Iain.
