Eh, sorry about that, I managed to get everything recompiled just 
yesterday :-/

Anyway, as of yesterday David's fixes do not improve the situation in my case. 
And your patch Matthias does not fix things either, there are still major 
corruptions in the windows. The patch which achieves the best results is 
still the (slightly modified) one from Erik.

Also today I noticed that with certain windows there are corruptions also with 
the patch applied. Strangely enough, the corruptions appear when there are 2 
xterms open, while with other apps (e.g., multiple firefox windows) there are 
no artifacts. Strange...

Let me know if I can provide more info (screenshots?). I'm always here to 
test, even if sometime it takes me a little time to do it ;)

Regards,

  Francesco
