This sounds like what I see on PPC Nvidia FX5200 with the addition of half the
screen being corrupt or black. An oversize image as desktop seems to
replicate/exaggerate the problem. Increasing ydim of Virtual is one workaround
that works for PPC nouveau users with this card. Moves corruption off screen?

Not sure, but I thought it may be same as:
