After a short period of usage, I began to notice recently visited web page graphics appear on newly visited web pages. Amazingly, I can always scroll to the bottom of a web page and it renders normally. At first I figured it was netscape (heh). Then I noticed the same web graphics appearing in my XMMS playlist. The graphics displayed would shift as I grew the playlist window. Even more interestingly, these graphic bugs would persist on a reboot (reset button), with the same graphical oddities...pieces of the same gif/jpegs would be scattered in the XMMS playlist window which is supposed to be black. Here's my card: (--) PCI:*(1:0:0) Matrox MGA G200 AGP rev 1, Mem @ 0xe3000000/24, 0xe1000000/14, 0xe0800000/23 Backing store is also disabled, not sure if it relates. Another odd message appears upon "xset q": Xlib: extension "XFree86-Misc" missing on display Oddly I thought this was in my server. My module section looks like this: Section "Module" Load "extmod" Load "xie" Load "pex5" Load "glx" Load "dri" Load "GLcore" Load "dbe" Load "record" Load "type1" Load "freetype" EndSection I guess I have to add: Load "misc" to get rid of that error? I have log files if someone is really interested in what is going on. Before I just go look for the 4.0.2 port, install it, find there is still a problem, and send another message...is there something simple I can do to fix this or has anyone seen this behavior before? ------ Dave Hayes - Consultant - Altadena CA, USA - dave@jetcafe.org >>> The opinions expressed above are entirely my own <<< What bread looks like depends upon whether you are hungry or not.
