I tried a brand new user, and the problem remains:
except I can see there's an initial bit where a couple of things work: I
could define a new background wallpaper and, select using gnome rather
than xterm, and I could start a terminal.
However, no bottom or top panels showed, and after a few minutes (or a
certain number of mouse events???) it became the same as for my original
user. I e nothing stays: I click on the background, and a menu flashes
by but disappears as soon as the mouse pointer enters the menu object.
I had done the gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders as suggested by Dr. Grabowski,
this time with no problem.
I'm thinking creating a new clone of my a7, and start upgrading again,
this time with fewer drastic changes.

In regard to: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Window manager problems after
upgrade...:
I upgraded from oi_151a7 to oi_151a9 yesterday (some of you may have
noticed! :-) ) and now I have a strange but consistent problem with
the window manager in the new BE.
First, which window manager is it? Something like
ps -ef | egrep -i 'meta|comp' | egrep -v grep
should tell you which one is running.
Next, does this same problem happen for a brand new user -- one that
doesn't already have a bunch of dot-files from previous versions of the
windowing environment?
