[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1503310] Re: window content doesn't refresh, only if window is moved
I have this same issue on my Acer swift3 laptop which doesn't have a graphics card. I think I have integrated intel graphics. Also I'm using Ubuntu with the MATE desktop environment. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1503310 Title: window content doesn't refresh, only if window is moved Status in compiz package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I suppose this is a bug with the nvidia driver, but I'm not sure.

The same problem occurs in other applications (e.g. in thunderbird when selecting an email --- email list entry is not marked and email content is not shown, only if you move the window), so it is not application-specific. The bug disappears when using the window manager "Gnome Classic (no effects)" instead (which is "non-compositing" in contrast to "Gnome Classic"). The bug is also present in other window magagers ("Ubuntu").

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1503310] Re: window content doesn't refresh, only if window is moved
I'm having an issue very much like this one: repainting of certain windows just stop. Input, menu's, mouse everything still works fine - it's just the repainting of the window that stops. Only way to recover is to close the window and restart the application. However, I am using 16.04 ... Does anyone have suggestions on what I can try to investigate this? Is there another bug report for this somewhere at the moment? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1503310 Title: window content doesn't refresh, only if window is moved Status in compiz package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I suppose this is a bug with the nvidia driver, but I'm not sure.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1503310] Re: window content doesn't refresh, only if window is moved
nvidia claims that this is is known issue with the window manager : "this is a duplicate of another Launchpad bug, and as I understand it, it’s a bug with Compiz and Mutter (the compositing managers of Unity and GNOME, respectively), see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/269904. I believe it’s largely been fixed in Compiz, but that patch likely did not propagate to Ubuntu 12.04. I believe it’s in all Ubuntu versions >= 15.04, and probably is fixed in 14.04 as well (though not 14.10)." so i'm afraid the only option is to upgrade to 15.04 (or maybe better 16.04) ... guess this ticket can be closed ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1503310 Title: window content doesn't refresh, only if window is moved Status in compiz package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I suppose this is a bug with the nvidia driver, but I'm not sure.
