Before I start rooting around, has anyone else seen bitrot (literally)
start creeping in on their Megapel display a few minutes after starting
the R4 xload?  I get black sprinkles all over the screen within a minute
or so.  "xrefresh" cleans it up.

I haven't seen what happens after running xload for a while.  I've
generally killed the app once I saw what it was doing to my screen.
