Attached is a picture of my screen running Terminal. This is on a BeagleBoard 
xM rev C connected via its HDMI out to a DVI adapter and then into a Dell 
UltraSharp monitor. Angstrom
doesn't display these problems, so the setup should be fine.

I'm not quite sure what is causing this. The resolution is also fairly low, and 
I haven't had any success using boot parameters (either the older 
video=omapfb:mode variant or the
newer DSS2 omapfb.mode variant).

Did you ever find out what is causing this?

No, but I'll be testing out a new build soon -- haven't been able to for a bit.

When you say that it works on one system (Poky?) vs another (Angstrom?)
are they both running the same version of U-Boot? I'm seeing this same
behaviour on one of my boards, but only when I run U-Boot from 2011.06

Yes -- Yocto/Poky/Sato vs. Angstrom. I doubt they're running the same version 
of U-Boot, but I don't know the version numbers offhand.

Check the display setup.  In my case, my old U-Boot (which works great)
was using dvimode=1024x768-24@60 and the new U-Boot is using 
dvimode=1024x768MR-16@60
When I switch back to the old setting, even with the new U-Boot, my display
runs great again.  n.b. this may be kernel revision sensitive as well.


BTW - why did you send your original query to the Poky list?

Because Darren suggested that I do so, to get various eyes on it :-)

Sounds reasonable - I only asked because your original email didn't
really spell out why it went to the Poky list.

Thanks & good luck
