To answer at least one of your questions, it does make a difference that
the other user's screen res be different from mine, in two ways.
Firstly, it makes that "noise" and displacement take place; secondly,
the problem is more pronounced when the resolutions are further apart.
So, when I log out of my son's 800*600 and log in to my 1280*1024, the
screen is a mess (although not so bad here today, I must admit), whereas
my wife's 1024*768 doesn't cause nearly the same distortion, and as I
said before, I can "snap" the screen back into place my simply rolling
my mouse pointer to the edge of the screen.

I will try modifying the framebuffer as per your suggestion, and will post back 
shortly. Thank you so very much for your attention to my problem.
