Title:
  [i945] [lucid] wide windows have messed up window decoration

Status in metacity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When making windows wider than the screen width (usually twice or
  three times as wide), the top window decoration is not updated
  correctly.

  I've run into the bug only with the terminal, and only when ssh'd into
  another machine using that terminal.

  Steps to reproduce:

  (1) Start a new terminal window
  (2) ssh into an other machine
  (3) start emacs on the remote machine
  (4) move the window to the 95% off the left hand side of the screen, so only a thin sliver is visible.
  (5) using the window decorator, widen the window by dragging from the left hand side of the screen to the right
  (6) repeat (4) and (5) several times
  (7) the window decoration at the top of the new wide window should now be visibly corrupt

  Why do I want to do this? So I can cut and paste long lines from the
  emacs window onto the local machine.

  $ lspci -nn | grep VGA
  00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME Express Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:27ae] (rev 03)

  Also, Compiz crashes if I do this, and I think on a different width. I
  saw the Compiz bug about the same marked as "invalid" with the comment
  "Don't do that!", but can't find it anymore.

  cheers
