That junk on the side looks to be a corrupt agi file in your home directory (the base picture area is inside a previous picture). Try removing the ~/agi_*.sdf file. and re-displaying. Not sure what effect moving the scroll bar is meant to have since I've never actually tried that. PS Stardev is a closed list so your email will not be accepted. I've put the images on http://www.jach.hawaii.edu/~timj/display_probs/ for comment from others.
