To reproduce this bug: (1) ensure that windows are NOT currently redirected to off-screen storage (2) run the attached test application, or run "xcompmgr -a" if you have it installed. (3) open any regular window, then open a "menu" window so that it overlaps with it partially (4) close the menu window and open it again in another position so that it will not overlap with the regular window (5) observe that the part of the regular window that was covered by the first menu window is cleared and then it's not normally repainted anymore I can reproduce reliably on a machine running Ubuntu Linux 11.04, which runs X.org version 1.10.1, with Linux kernel 2.6.24-29-server x86_64 The window manager running is Metacity (with Metacity's own compositor disabled). The "menu" windows mentioned in steps 3 to 5 are those that appear when right clicking on the desktop. I don't know what is special about them in X11 terms, but there are no other windows that exhibit this behavior that I could find. I could reproduce this bug both on an Nvidia card and on a machine with integrated Intel graphics.

It can be reproduced with nvidia, fglrx and intel. I haven't tried to reproduce it with radeon yet but, if it can help, I will.

Moving the window makes the hole go away as miMoveWindow() does a RegionCopy(). I guess something weird happens when the window is no longer marked as overlapped. Maybe miMarkOverlappedWindows() doesn't play well with override redirect windows in CompositeRedirectAutomatic mode. Any ideas as to how I can further debug the issue?

Moving the window will cause it to repaint and fix the corrupted area. This happens regardless of the capture_before_unmap option being enabled in metacity. This doesn't happen if metacity's compositor is enabled and active. This was reproduced consistently both with different nvidia cards and with intel integrated graphics. This can't be reproduced in a gnome classic session (metacity).
