Just a brief followup to the odd efect noted above in #14.  On this
boot, which resulted in an SHM-free greeting, I left the computer idle,
and after the screen blank engaged, I wiggled the touchpad to awaken the
screen, and it was again SHM-free.

I will avoid concluding anything from that experience!

Title:
  1002:5975 [Dell Inspiron 1501] vertical coloured lines / herringbone
  pattern on startup

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This problem occurs intermittently on my Dell Inspiron 1501 laptop.
  For instance, on booting the Saucy beta 2 release from USB stick; or
  today, booting the installed 13.10 beta 2 with all updates current.
  But not always. The screen is 100% illegible when this happens.

  WORKAROUND: Wait for the screen to blank on power save; when it is
  reactivated, the display is fine. Or if screen blanking is not
  engaged, close the lid, wait, and open it again.
