           Summary: client-side compositing causes windows to not redraw
                    correctly
           Product: xapps
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: xcompmgr
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org

When xcompmgr is run windows aren't redrawn correctly when they are moved, for 
example. This only happens when client-side compositing is enabled (e.g. with
the -c switch). If server-side compositing (-a) is enabled, it's working.

On the screenshot you can see what happened when I opened one XTerm in twm and m
oved it around a bit.

When xcompmgr is killed, the "ghost windows" disappear.

This problem occurs with OpenBox 3.2 and with twm (didn't test any others as Ope
nBox 3.2 is known to work with xcompmgr).

I run Xorg 6.8.0.
