It's still there, but...

1) As mentioned earlier, it doesn't occur every boot, so if it didn't occur
since my last git pull and build, that doesn't necessarily indicate it's not
there.

2) Still, I DID see it with my last pull, git show says 6b9883f, BUT...

3) As of that last pull, I'm also still seeing bug #13939 (lm_sensors fail),
and as described there, I'm reverting commit 7cb7f45c7feef43c8f71f5cfed (which
is itself a revert), in ordered to get working lm_sensors.

4) Again as in #1, that it doesn't occur for couple boots doesn't mean much,
which is why I've not bisected, but while I was testing to see if the other bug
had been fixed, thus WITHOUT the revert of #3, I didn't see it.  I DID see it
on doing the revert in #3.  Thus, it is POSSIBLE that the commit in #3 fixes
the scrambled framebuffer issue (this bug), while killing lm_sensors (thus the
other bug).

5) Since I don't reboot every day, and it doesn't occur at every boot, I may
well go a week (which might be only a boot or two) without seeing it, only to
see it several times in a row after that.

I really wish it was easier to pin down...  Any suggestions on what might make
it reproduceable enough to reliably bisect?  Maybe a boot log from when it
works vs not, if I can manage, would help?
