Eegadz! My screen keeps going whacko when I open applications or move the mouse! Trying to make changes in appearances panel causes Type 2 error.
I *think* it's fixed now, since it hasn't done it since I did following things: *soft reboot, reset pram (didn't solve) *throw away all prefs with anything to do with desktop, video settings (nada) *throw away whole prefs folder, reset pram (still goes crazy) *cold reboot after a ten minute rest (seems to be ok now!) Seems to be OK now. Any idea what happened, or how I can prevent it from happening again? I'm relatively certain it's cause I only have 2 megs VRAM right now and had some pretty hefty appearance settings (desktop picture, aqua-ish theme). Can I get a nod on this one way or another for my own sanity?
