Hey, thanks for the report.

There were some fixes today that may help with some of the driver
pixmaps corruption, but there's likely more issues there to resolve.

For your panel issue, I'm still not sure exactly how NVIDIA decide which
set of scripts to run.  I'd be very interested in seeing the output of
"dmesg" with nouveau running on that machine, hopefully with enough data
we'll be able to track this down soon.

Thanks!
Ben.
