OK. (Note that I don't know if the guy who volunteered to file a bug 
report with Apple actually did it.)

Just FYI: everything works fine with Mac OS X Panther 10.3.5 on my 15"
Powerbook (the old Titanium model, with the 64Mb ATI card), but I used
to have similar problems with Jaguar and early releases of Panther (not
sure which update fixed it, though).
