This happens on Sun386, Sun3's all color. Apparently monochrome displays don't have this problem. Any ideas? Sounds like the Sun color server Pixmap problem. There is a bug somewhere in the cfb code and if you try to use a pixmap as a tile, it offsets strange (if you use awm with the Mac-like lines hilighting the title, you will sometimes see the lines go up in peaks).
