My Dell Inspiron 1525 does some pretty crazy stuff when I jump from X down
to a normal text terminal. All of the characters seem to 'warp in' from the
right. The photo Jeffrey showed looked kinda similar.
Now... my problem goes away after 1/2 second. So haven't looked into why,
or if it even matters.
*shrug* I hate computers.
