That would appear to be a result of me playing with reducing the DefaultDepth to 16 on these bandwidth constrained devices. Hmm, if used a default depth of 15 that should prevent that discoloration. (It's been a useful exercise but I think there are too many bugs in the upper layers of the rendering stack for us to make the switch by default.)

This maybe unexpected. You have both a LVDS and DVI connected. So it is picking a mode common to both (1280x800) and cloning the desktop across. That will result in only the centre portion of the DVI output being used (if the monitor itself does not autoscale). I'm guessing this a bug in the display manager since monitors.xml says not to clone and to use native modes...
