recreate this on the latest release of Ubuntu and cannot reproduce it.
This bug is being marked as Invalid. If you believe the problem to
still exist in the latest version of Ubuntu please comment on why that
is the case and

This is reproducible on the live desktop from ubuntu-12.04.5.iso running
on a Thinkpad T42 (radeon graphics) - boot the iso, start xterm and the
typed text is immediately corrupted with characters being replaced with
white boxes, but dragging the window causes the boxes to be replaced by

Just some additional info that might help narrowing down the cause.
I see this same effect on a machine running Arch Linux.
On this machine I use urxvt on top of the i3 window manager. (So not
Gnome, KDE or Unity).
It happens when text gets scrolled in the terminal window.

I don't see any changes that would have fixed it, but it's quite
possible that other changes could adjust the timing such that the bug is
harder to reproduce.
I've got a Q600 handy, though, so give me a few minutes to load up Saucy
onto my test system and I'll check.

Just tested on 13.10, and I can still reproduce the problem. It's less
frequent on my system than it did on 12.04, but it still shows up every

I am using Ubuntu 12.04. I regularly see this problem in gnome-terminal
and gedit. It's really a pain. And the work around (using workarounds in
ccsm) does effect the desktop responsiveness.

I've given up and switched away. There's been no response from anyone
about anything related to this bug in months and it's far too painful
for me to deal with any longer. If/when someone posts a fix or
workaround or something, I'll try it.

This bug is easily reproducible using nvidia-binary drivers (even the latest
experimental) on Saucy/Precise; however you need to set your nvidia driver into
a low performance state. You can use an xorg.conf with the following:

I can also confirm that I see this on ubuntu precise w/ cinnamon (non-
2D) (so, I think compiz is a red herring).
The effect is especially pronounced when scrolling in vim in gnome-
terminal.
LMK if there's any other debugging info I can provide.

This problem is reproducible with programs that link against libtinfo

reproducible with programs that don't, like konsole.
It's assigned here to compiz, probably because changing some compiz
settings makes it sometimes go away, or
This bug was affecting me as well. Bruno Haible's workaround (switch
Compositing to XRender) seems to have worked for me. I was seeing the
effect in simple ls -a (which doesn't scroll) in xterm, as well as in
emacs running in an xterm.
I'm running Kubuntu 12.04, fully uptodate.

Perhaps what I'm seeing in bug 1077639 is a duplicate of this bug ? Text
rendering issues have been present for me in both Ubuntu 12.04 and now
in Ubuntu 12.10 using nvidia drivers. Emacs is the worst affected of all
applications I use regularly. There are also some occasional glitches in
I'm afraid switching distributions might not help since this is
happening on Gentoo as well. The corruption is less pervasive in gnome-
terminal, and that's what I've been using for now, but it happens in a
number of other applications (like gvim) as well (but in many others it
doesn't). I am sort

upgrades did not help), and it fixes this bug for me. Unfortunately
0.9.8 on Gentoo has issues with several plugins not working correctly

I'm experiencing this issue (or something _very_ similar) in urxvt under
gnome-shell with nvidia-current 302.17-0ubuntu1~precise~xup2, whereas I
never noticed it when I was using Unity. I don't have compositing or
transparency enabled in urxvt. I don't recall seeing this issue with
gnome-terminal;
That didn't take long. Less than half an hour and I've already had the
same thing in gnome-terminal.
