Wow, This is bizarre. The screen pixelated in kdemod3 (old standard version). I couldn't see a thing. I typed alt+f2 "ksnapshot" to grab a screenshot and while the screenshot did capture part of the screen pixelation on the right hand side, it looks a whole lot better than the screen did when I took the shot. I don't know whether this is X, glibc, libxcb or what, but if you look at the screenshot, you will notice that the kate document list (kate is on the left) has been repeated on the right side pixelated. You can also see this has wrapped 'over' thunderbird on the right side of the screen. This behaves like an old monitor timing issue, but I have experienced it on multiple boxes. Here is the screenshot for what it's worth. I'll have more time to look at this issue tomorrow.
