garbage icons
« on: January 14, 2011, 05:12:36 PM »
Not sure if this is a hardware or software issue.
Through the Picasso IV display I was getting really garbage icons, the more time that went by (with the computer on, the worse they would get).  I would also notice the problems on some games (promoted through the picasso IV screen).
I removed a background image from the workbench so that the background is just the standard amiga grey, and the icon garbage issue went away.
Does that sound like maybe its a render setting issue?... or maybe a jumper on the picasso?

Do you have anything unusual in your start up sequence? fastIprefs, MCP, fastblit etc?

Do you have a back up partition with just a standard WB instalation +picasso? If so, does that have the same problem?

Getting worse over time makes me wonder whether it could be heat related. Does the problem come back more quickly if you warm reboot compared to when you cold boot?
