The problem seems to have started in FS-UAE 2.5.2dev and is still in FS-UAE 2.5.4dev. There is no problem in FS-UAE 2.5.0dev. (can't remember if I tried 2.5.1dev)
I haven't managed to reproduce it, but it is of course possible I just haven't tried long enough. Does it happen fairly soon after Workbench starts? Does it happen with a stock Workbench environment?

Please provide log files and screenshot of performance graphs (Ctrl+F10 to display graphs).

Can you provide detailed step-by-step instructions on how to easily reproduce?

Log files and performance graphs here too please

I'm about to try a workaround suggested in an earlier thread. EDIT: workaround implemented and tested -it works!

Thanks for testing, and great that you like it

It just didn't seem necessary. That can easily be changed if it would improve anything

It does happen right after start of fs-uae from the fs-uae-launcher and stays for about 2 seconds. It does not happen in fs-arcade. It does not happen when started in window mode. I retested the v2.4.0. It does not happen on 2.4.x series launcher in fullscreen.

It looks like the memory for the bitplane that was not cleared or the pointer of the bitplane points somewhere into memory of the host OS.

Its exactly the time when it should fade from black to light gray. When light gray becomes white (about 3 seconds after start) the scrambled screen becomes cleared.

Anyone else sees this? Anyway its only cosmetic though, after start phase every things seems quite normal.
I haven't really seen this on my OS X 10.8 laptop. It could be related to the new "fullscreen space" fullscreen support in the recent development versions. Can you test with both
Code:
fullscreen_mode = desktop
and
Code:
fullscreen_mode = fullscreen
?

I'm not familiar with Chakra Linux, but I would be happy to provide some information about that on the FS-UAE download page. But I need some more information: what does the user have to do to install those packages on Chakra Linux?

Right now it is only used to select custom game lists from oagd.net (which isn't really enabled yet, some work left on the server side). But it does make sense to add those options to the list as well

If this isn't already there, could it be added? If not, can you add a feature to automatically dynamically populate the swap list with all ADFs in a folder and subfolders (like a tick box or something)
Technically possible, yes - I have just never bothered yet to write a proper directory / file selector which can be efficiently used with a large set of files. I'm reluctant to add an half-baked feature.

It should work fine as long as the gamepad is recognized by your operating system. http://fs-uae.net/log-files-needed

Indeed, please use 2.4.1dev or the latest development version, I won't provide support for 2.3.x any more
