OK, after upgrading to latest xserver-xorg, it was still broken (i.e. it
overwrote the last libvgahw.a you sent me with a non-working one). When
I came to the computer today if I switched back and forth to console
screen, the console would end up with random foreground and background
palette changes. I reset the xserver. The green vertical lines were
back. Switching to console mode got rid of the green lines, but the
random palette changes continued.

I got your email and installed this libvgahw.a and restarted X. The
vertical green lines were gone. So it worked. When I switch to the
console I was still getting random palette changes even with the new
patch.

So I rebooted the system as you suggested, and I can no longer reproduce
the random palette changes on the console.

So as far as I can tell, the latest libvgahw.a cures the problem.
