You're probably using a card that doesn't support overlays (i.e. NVIDIA

You do realize you just upgraded to SVN head, right?  That means you
can't (with this database) go back to 0.19 or 0.19-fixes or 0.19.1 (when

-commits lists.

This is the reason you don't get an OSD.  Change your OSD theme in the
frontend settings.
