Thanks for your message, Mike.  It is Linux, and I also had this before, but
don't remember exactly how I fixed it.  I did try killing it this time and
that didn't work.  The interesting thing is, that it's a :0 session, which
means it's an exact working session of my Linux machine's screen with a dual
monitor width.  I can use a :2 or any other session, and I don't need to
move my mouse to refresh.

Thanks,
Marty

I remember having this problem on a UNIX/Linux system, but I don't remember
how I fixed it.  I think maybe I had to kill the session and start over.

This reminds me of a problem I was having with a conflict of SSH port
forwarding:

I think maybe that was a cause of the weirdness we are now discussing.  I
know it was happening for someone using :12, and thus 6012.
