It only happens to the root window (the background) for me and only a
stripe that is as high as the TV output, but that is repeatable (any
time I use xawtv to watch TV).

Since it only is aesthetic problem for me, I never cared to find a
cure.

MSI GeForce4 Ti 4200 VTD-64, AGP, Mandrake Cooker (up-to-date) on
default Mandrake kernel (2.4.20-2). nvidia's driver works (4191) for me
together with xawtv.
Up to now I thought rivatv (the video-in driver) was the culprit and
did not care to find a solution, because the driver is still at 0.5
and so some glitches are to be expected.
