THE REMAINING MINOR ISSUE For some reason, the upper left two-thirds of the desktop background is darker than the rest of the desktop background. It's easier to show than to explain how it looks, so anyone interested can view it here:
Looks to me as if a 1024x768 rendering of the background image is being layered on top of a rendering of the same image that has been scaled up to 1920x1024. Have you checked whether you can actually place icons on the lower and right parts of the screen? I'm speculating that the desktop manager is still operating at 1024x768 even though the X screen is larger.
I quite recently had something that looked quite similar on my iMac g5 when I had a cable plugged in to the VGA port. he system apparently overlaid the VGA screen over the screen on the built in LCD. Does the OP have a second monitor attached to he system?
