Hi,

The public Athena system named Kumala (Moira record below) has a problem
with its display.  The symptom is regular vertical broken lines 1 or 2
pixels wide, evenly spaced across the monitor at an interval of about 3/4
inches between the lines.

I think it is  either the graphics card or the monitor, and suspect the
graphics card.

This is not very urgent since the system is still functional, so when you
have a chance...

Thanks,
