It might well be that the problems described have similar origin and 
maybe similar solution. I've had the same issues sometime in the past, 
when the resolution was too low, e.g. around 640 x 480. This was back 
when I had Dapper installed, at some point I managed to get the 
resolution to 800x600 and that solved the problem in all programs I was 
using. Sorry I don't have any hint on how to fix that properly.
