Hi all

I've just upgraded to OS 8.6, and I must say its visually much improved
over 8.1.  The smooth text looks fantastic!  Better in fact than even
Windows text looks, its more readable.

Anyway, as soon as I went from 8.5 where all was golden, to 8.6, the
screen started having all this garbage and the graphics would trash when
scrolling up and down a window, such as the system folder.

Disabling the Twin Turbo acceleration cures the problem.  I also tried
removing the Apple Vision extension, that made no difference.  What does
Apple Vision do?  And also, what does the A/Rose extension do?  I was
afraid to remove it because I didnt' know what it did.

I also notice that web pages fill in noticeable quicker with
acceleration off, although they do scroll slower than they used to.  I
can't tell the difference anymore between  the text input now and when
it was accelerated by hardware.  So I'd say some things in the OS also
got faster.

Additionally, Unreal Tournament runs now, although the frame rate is
like trying to play Quake fullscreen on an 060 Amiga with no speed
patches (in otherwords, its pretty slow.)
