I just got the latest updates and the slider does not seem to be
disappearing anymore (yay!). However, the hanging problem is still
there, I can easily reproduce it -- I don't think it's going to
be related to the slider.
There is one bug with the new slider on my system - as it advances,
it leaves behind "slivers" one or two pixels wide (looks like the
left edge of the slider does not get erased when it advances).
I have 1024x768 @ True Color, Small Fonts.
