I think I see what you mean. the same thing happens on my Asus laptop (ATI X700 graphic card) when I switch from the console to X. Sometimes the screen appears like what you'll get when using the wrong refresh rate on a CRT screen. switching again to and from a console makes it go away. Never knew what was causing it though. Driver issue or X issue ?...
