All was well with Karmic alpha1, the symptoms appeared after an update
in late June or sometime in July, I wish I'd remembered or made a note.
Recently I did a clean install of alpha 5 and no change. It appears to
be associated with the drivers associated with my Radeon 7200 (circa
2002) display adapter. The symptoms were eliminated when another display
adapter that was on hand, a 1997 vintage S3 ViRGE PCI was installed.
Details of the symptoms: Kicker panel is black with very thin vertical
lines of various seemingly random hues and shades of orange, yellow and
gray. When moving the mouse pointer along kicker panel the expected text
windows appear at the expected location of the icons. The Kmenu opens to
a crosshatch of similar lines with more variety of colors and when
applications are opened, the titlebar on open apps also shows symptoms
like the Kicker panel.
