screenshot of problem
xorg-video-intel package: 2:2.99.910-0ubuntu1
I can't remember how recently this was updated, though, so some of these
problem might be fixed in this version. I took the attached screenshots during
the past weeks.
I have tearfree on in xorg.conf, vsync off in xfce compositing manager, and
shadows on in xfce compositing manager.
The problems with the menu (see screenshots) appeared with tearfree on and
shadows on.
The problem with black taskbar I think is irrespective of this shadows and
tearfree. Although it seemed to worsen with tearfree on. To the point of having
a chronic black thing on the indicator applet.
The taskbar is gtk2, the indicator applet is gtk3. I also had blackness in some
other gtk3 programs. The gtk3 problems have been gone after I switched from the
fallback theme to adwaita. I don't know whether this points to a bug in gtk or
simply that the fallback theme is more sensitive to damage tracking problems.
Unfortunately I don't have the xorg log from these events, but when it happens
again I will attach it. The current xorg log doesn't seem to show any problems.
More pictures will be attached.</pre>
