Public bug reported: It happens quite often that tooltips / menus are not displayed until the cursor is moved over the area where they should appear. Following observations: - This does not appear to be a bug in a specific driver, can reproduce it with xorg-intel, xorg-ati and fglrx - This does not appear to be a bug in either compiz, nor mesa: under gnome, it is most easily reproducable with compiz enabled, but for instance on KDE the problem is easier to reproduce without any compositing manager running at all. - This is a regression compared to xorg-1.8 (or generally ubuntu 10.04).
A typical example video is attaced.
