I'm not sure if anyone would find this information useful, but I had 
asked if anyone knew why I was seeing about 10-20 lines of random pixels 
at the top of my screen any time I enabled cups, or webmin in rc.conf.

After months of trying to figure out the problem, I found the cause. In 
my machine I had an ATI TV Wonder Pro (crap) capture card. After 
removing this card from my machine, the problem went away. I'm not sure 
why the card caused this problem, but now that the card is out, 
everything is fine.

Thanks to those of you that emailed in an attempt to help me resolve the 
issue. Hopefully if anyone else experiences this issue, this post helps.
