If you are talking about the textbox mainly, I know that Peter has been working on it a lot, but the control is not an easy one. The text 'going to garbage' and 'doubling' is a known issue I believe. A lot of the drawing issues are of course Cairo related (I say that not to blame them), but I would think that most/all exceptions are due to code on our side.

The X11 performance is terrible, for example editing text is totaly unusable ( no right click for copy/paster instead the text get garbiged display ), multiple click on the text gets throwing exception and so on..., sometime text is doubled (offset on redrawing ??)
