[Bug 759203] Re: alt+tab window cycling leaves window borders drawn across windows

 

Yes, it's still present in oneiric.  And according to upstream, this is
a recently-fixed X bug, not a bug in metacity.

Patch can be found here:
  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.freedesktop.xorg.devel/25664

Still testing the patch to confirm that it fixes the problem here.

** Package changed: metacity (Ubuntu) => xorg-server (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => New

Title:
  alt+tab window cycling leaves window borders drawn across windows

Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: metacity

  Using metacity in natty (with the intel driver), if I use alt+tab to
  cycle between three windows, and I cycle past a window which overlaps
  the previously-foregrounded window, a line is left behind after
  alt+tab where the border of the cycled-past window was shown.
