Yes, but thats a onetime thing. The bug somehow "burns" into the system, and it needs time to "heal". Now, when I start the machine, I don't have any issues. Thats why I called it weird, I've never seen something like this. See the link I posted in the original report: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64332 People there reported similar behaviour: "Update to the comment above: Even if the lines were not gone after the reboot with the new kernel, there are no new lines and the old ones seem to disappear one by one over time. It kindof "heals". This is a VERY strange bug, but maybe fixed after all. Just to let you all know, don't despair if the reboot does not fix the lines promptly. Shuffle around some windows and see."
