It has been replaced by nouveau (which is rather buggy), I've mentioned here: On 2018-10-31 10:58:09 +0100, Egmont Koblinger wrote: > Sorry, I missed this bit: > > > I've just tried on another machine, which uses nouveau instead of > > the nvidia driver, and I cannot reproduce the issue. I forgot that due to a bug in nouveau, I was using a compositor (compton) by default. But if I kill it, the bug does not occur either. And BTW, if I use compton on the machine with the closed-source nvidia driver, the problem disappears. > Does that machine have the very same packages (e.g. both are an > up-to-date sid), same cairo version, There may be some differences, but same gnome-terminal, vte and cairo packages.

Now, in any case, the information on the influence of the compositor (on the same machine) may be more useful. > If not then it could be purely a coincidence.
