I have a problem with the layout of the front page and certain of the system pages. A big unwelcome white square appears in the middle of the page, just after the header and before the rest of the content. This big unwelcome white square appears on most but not all pages, and it seems inexplicable. Attached are some screen shots -- two of them display the problem, and the third shows the page as it should appear with no big unwelcome white square. I have spent many hours looking for the cause of this problem, and I am now at the end of my rope. Any help would be appreciated!
PS: I have not edited the style.css file or any of the php files that are part of the slate theme, and i have not created a local.css.

browser dependent ?
You should mention which browser(s) you observe this behavior in. Is the problem still present after a page reload?
I saw something like you're describing in Opera-10, but it went away after a page reload. Chrome and Firefox are the most reliable. Opera doesn't handle gradients and corner rounding. IE-8 handles the gradients, but not the corner rounding.
You said that you are not using local.css. When you do, be sure to enable it in the .info file. See if you notice the following problem in Firefox .. when I first started overriding styles in local.css, Chrome picked them up, but Firefox ignored them.
