So far I went back to 3.14, and yes, graphics works there.

Back to 3.15, put it to smaller monitor. This time, top 30% of screen
works, and last working scanline is copied to the rest 60% of
screen. [With the exception of mouse cursor, that somehow affects that
magically.]

So you know where the bug is or not?

I'm confused. And yes, it seems reliable. But I'm not sure if I see
same bug you are talking about.
