Check the  execute     permission on    'loadst'. It's    in
/usr/local/lib/emacs/etc,  or  wherever you  keep your emacs
files. If emacs can't exec loadst it  will display 'time and
load' for a sec and then repaint with the original modeline.
This  happend to me when  I   forgot to   make loadst public
executeable (or the directory it's in)....
