I'll try to find some time to do that this week. Also I forgot to 
mention that even using 0.3.0 when only VIA_DEVICE_CRT was set and I 
connected the monitor directly through DVI I got the exact same weird 
moving stripes that were my problem in the first place. They were gone 
only after I added VIA_DEVICE_LCD.
