You get pixel lines to the right of what is being moved/scrolled.
The go away as soon as you stop moving .. but .. it also currupts the
the image a little. Some times it seems that it skews a row of pixels off
by a pixel or two (ie .. shifts)

xrefresh normally clears up some of it.
with out accel, it does not do the "pixel lines to the right" but
it does junk up some of the widgets occaisonally.

I was running 3.2 on the Trio, and am running 3.2A on the ET6000 for the
16bpp.
Some of this may be a 3.2A-ism .. and from the doco it seems the 
pixel line/artifacts are not something they can fix.
