::You can try to boot in safe mode. That will use the default VGA driver

::Also, you can try to install Mozilla FireFox or Mozilla Thunderbird and

::you'll have to wait for Earle's patch to land.

I tried booting my system with VGA mode, and icon is still garbled.
I also tried installing FireFox that seems to work just fine.

Another data point that I found are, if I setup shortcut to the XWin.exe
binary then try changing the icon for the shortcut, icon select window
show both garbled icon and X on white icon.
I've attached the screen dump as: icon_select.bmp.gz

Thanks in advance,
 Haro
