 Sometimes, when I'm looking at the virtual terminal, typing innocuous
 things that the bash prompt, the leftmost two or three columns of pixels
 will turn black.  Sometimes the black stripe covers the whole height of
 the screen; other times it's only a few rows.  If I hit enter, the problem
 seems to go away.

 I'd seen this behavior months ago, and I thought it was fixed, but now I'm
 seeing it again under Joyride 2074, with the 2.6.25 kernel and F9 base.
