Hardware error or X misconfigured. Try to lower resolution / refresh rate
and see if problem persists. Try another video card. If degausing occurs at
the lowest supported resolution and refresh rate, this is clearly hardware
issue. Examine, if degausing depends on the background color of the window
(try black, white, red, green, blue).=20
