Hi Dave, I agree with you that it has been very quiet in this bug report lately, even though the problem still exists and must be affecting more people than those who have found this bug report. Anyway, a temporary solution, as stated in #15 and #16, is to copy an older Ubuntu's metacity and run

According to various observations in this bug report (especially #15 and #16), I believe this is not an X server bug but a bug in Metacity. ** Package changed: xorg-server (Ubuntu) = metacity (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is

I've seen this corruption problem when switching workspaces since upgrading to 11.04 from 10.10. It's worst for gnome-terminals, i.e. going from Thunderbird (after reading mail or even just selecting various folders) and then switching to a workspace with at least one gnome-terminal window.

Hi guys, Anyone got a workaround for this thing ? Maybe some patched metacity or smth will be great. Thanks, Alin -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/778083 Title: Switching

Sven's solution worked for me also, I didn't noticed weird corruptions after replacing the metacity with an older one (10.10). Beside of that, I encounter a pretty similar problem when playing with the tooltip on the 'workspaces' preferences in the bottom right corner of the desktop (see the

Alin, Yes, the tooltips also corrupt my display as you describe. I've described this (although without a screenshot) in comment #5. With kind regards, Sven -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu.

A question for the other people who are also affected by this problem: does the remaining-border-corruption ever happen to you on non-Gnome- Terminal windows? I've been experimenting with some other windows, such as a calculator or other small windows, and they never seem to have any residue left

More corruption, not only window borders. I've attached an image where part of a pop-up-context-menu in Thunderbird is not being drawn. Another thing: when the corruption happens in the Gnome Panel, as in the image that I've already attached in #5, it's the actual desktop background that gets

I've more or less confirmed that metacity is at fault: I've copied /usr/bin/metacity from a Lucid machine to /tmp and ran /tmp/metacity --replace. This causes the Lucid version of metacity to take over. I've not had any corruption with that version (it's a miracle that it works with Natty's
