I am having to forward the X session over the net so it is really slow, but from what I can tell the image looks fine with -np 1.

I have attached the current MatrixCamera class. I really need to go through and clean it up. Please excuse the mess.

Could you also post the piece of the NetworkUI that sets up the Camera? I'm a little worried that there might be something in there that's not threadsafe. We have worked under the assumption that Manta takes care of thread-safety for the Camera, but I'm not totally sure.
