<pre>Well I'm curious how this explains this - I've taken current git -
changed the value to '44' - and I'm typing this text. I could see a lot of
errors during text typing - but these errors seems to be somehow limited only
to certain regions of shown text.
It's not destroyed everywhere - only in some particularly piece and in
particular time - it's kind of weird defect to observe - and it also happen for
only some specific use-case
i.e. my text edit 'fte' which is using X drawing code has absolutely no issue
- all characters are always correct.
But in firefox - typing this BZ I could see a lot of changing letters (usually
everything after 10 letter on the line is weirdly changing - like if the font
cache would be not working correctly.
Typing on keyboard shows rending bugs - as soon as right mouse button is hit -
everything is instantly redrawn correctly and pop window is shown.
Another thing I notice is - I've about 20 lines of email headers in
thunderbird. And exactly only the 4th line is showing problems with letters -
even when I just move the mouse over the TB window - this text is being
continuously modified - but everything else in that window is without any
problem.
So if you say - there is hw bug - how is that - it could very easily render
everything correctly ?
Why only certain portions of text have distortions - why it's not randomly
spread over the whole screen (which I'd have expected for time collisions)?</pre>
