Even after resetting as above, things didn't work for me. But one unusual 
step *seems* to have solved the problem (at least at my end). What I did 
was add more virtual terminals on the console (/etc/inittab) and the issue 
is resolved. I no longer get garbled screen. Red Hat comes with default 6
VTs, I increased it to 10. I don't know if this is the solution of just a 
case of coincidence.
