[Bug 1248550] [NEW] display not refreshing after moving/closing/opening windows

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
Public bug reported:

Current version:  Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.  Cairo Dock 3.3.2

Hardware:
IBM 9228 Workstation
Processor		: 4x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU            5150  @ 2.66GHz
Memory		: 4120MB (1167MB used)
Operating System		: Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS
Resolution		: 1920x1200 pixels
OpenGL Renderer		: Gallium 0.4 on NV49
X11 Vendor		: The X.Org Foundation

NVIDIA Corporation G71GL [Quadro FX 3500] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA
controller])

After recent update through ubuntu software manager, cairo dock does not
refresh the display properly when moving windows around.  Jagged edges,
ghost images of windows as they are moved, etc.  When I move along the
app launcher, the pop ups all overwrite each other creating quite a
visual mess.   Gnome classic interface works just fine.  Problem occurs
at all times when using Cairo Dock.  Happens under all themes I have
tried.

Problem happened after my 11/2 update.  Here are the apt-get details of
that update:

While in Gnome classis and I run the command below from terminal (cairo-dock -l debug > debug.txt), I get this result:

The launcher appears at the bottom with display refresh problems I have
noted above.

I also noticed a similar issue was reported as a question on askubuntu:

This askubuntu issue may or may not be related but thought I would
include this.
