There is a guy here who's having trouble with gnome. He logged in today to
find the display somewhat unreadable. Sort of like when your monitor
resolution is too high --- windows chopped up a bit and appearing in
multiple locations. The crux is that it looks fine when root logs in. To
test this he first deleted all of his configuration files and then logged
in. The same problem was still present. Next he created a new user, logged
in as that user, and the problem persisted with the new user.
