[dev] [dwm] window borders in Virtualbox

[Thomas Dahms]

Hi list,

I am using dwm inside an Oracle Virtualbox (version 3.2.10 on Windows  
host, Arch Linux x86_64 guest with xorg-server 1.9.901).

When switching focus between two side-by-side terminals, only the upper  
parts of the window borders are redrawn (down to the point where the  
lowest of the two cursors is). Other applications also show border drawing  
issues, but it's not as predictable as with terminals. When redrawing  
everything (by switching layouts), the borders are redrawn correctly.

The funny thing is that when I try to take a screenshot of what's  
happening, the borders look right in the screenshot. Regardless of where I  
take the screenshot, host or guest.

This does not occur with other window managers, but it may still not be  
dwm's fault. I'd be glad if someone can help.

Thanks.
