This is a bit problematic because this require to recompile Xorg completly
for me and I can't do it now :( I hope I will be able to find some time for deeper
look inside this problem soon.

Anyway another small update. 

- This problem is general and affect both Gnome & KDE
- This can be a bug in Conky/Torsmo, but I have not enough time to check
  that.

But finaly I found that this problem appear only when the double buffering
rendering is enabled in torsmo ('double_buffer on' in .conkyrc). When I disable it the problem is gone too, but of coz torsmo window flickers a lot.

It's easy to reproduce. Enable double buffering and set update interval to
1s or 0.5s ('update_interval 1.0' in .conkyrc)

Regards
