This appears in i810 chipsets driven in accelerated graphics mode under KDE.
Perhaps it is a feature of the images to let you know you have true
acceleration. Option "noaccel" eliminates it and the muddy appearance of
Konsole windows when you move other window borders across their screens.
I repeat, this is a feature that appears only when THREE conditions coincide.
i810 chipset
KDE
full acceleration under X
remove any one and you do not see the feature.
Civileme
BTW this feature is also present in rudimentary form (muddy Konsole) in KDE
2.0 and 2.0.1. It works better in the betas and seems to have reached its
peak performance in KDE 2.1. It also works well under both 8.0 and cooker
installs and 7.2 installs.
