Description of problem:
Icon lables disappear and move from screen 1 to screen 2 when the mouse moves
over them.  This happens with the icons on the KDE desktop, or within the
Konqueror file manager.  The drivers installed are from the Matrox web site, and
the dual monitors are configured using the PowerDesk utility.

You are using Matrox supplied drivers.  Report the problem to Matrox.
We did not ship or supply this software, and we do not support it.

If you can reproduce this problem using the stock Red Hat supplied
driver, then that is a different case.
