| In SL9.1 I sometimes get the screen full with vertical black and white lines when powering the computer down. This didn't happen with previous SL versions. It seems that XF86 in SL9.1 does not flush the video buffer correctly. Did anyone else make this observations, and what could be done about it? I use an NVidea card JB |

I have no idea what causes it. It does not happen very often, so I am not very bothered by it. I assume that there is a bug in the XFree86 server.(??) E.R |
