On my screen I see a line of the background window repeated the entire
screen which creates the vertical stripes. But after a few seconds in
that mode, or if I attempt to move to a VTY, the left half of the screen
changes to some non-white noise pattern.

It had seemed to have been fixed by a recent patch to the DRM code, but
it still is showing up on occasion. I'm hoping that it will do it at
work where I can easily log in over the network and look at the status
of the system. It is very alive and I can type in commands (carefully)
and they are executed. I just can't see input or output. It does not
happen every time or even close to it. I have seen it at least once with
xorg-server-1.6. 

I also have to be careful restarting X. If bonobo-activation-server is
still running, the system often hangs and I have to power cycle
it. During this time, the kernel is still alive as I can ping the
system, but not much more.
