I had another idea today - I checked the xrender pipeline against whatever is used by default in openjdk on X11. This: java -Dsun.java2d.xrender=false -jar TestApp.jar shows the artifacts, while this: java -Dsun.java2d.xrender=True -jar TestApp.jar works as I would expect it to. Thankyou for reporting this and posting a workaround (which I will test after work). I have been experiencing this with freeplane, freemind and jedit and posted a Debian bug associated with freeplane over half a year ago, which has been ignored: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=669712 I have £40 I can Paypal as a bounty for fixing this bug (workaround is nice, but I want to support fixing of libre software). This works for freeplane - thanks again Matthias :) hi, First of all many thanks for the workaround. As the Debian freeplane package maintainer I am wondering whether I should always include "-Dsun.java2d.xrender=True" in /usr/bin/freeplane? This page: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/2d/flags.html#xrender says "Older X11 configurations may not be able to support XRender.". => I think XRender is quite old (2000?), so it is safe to use it in Debian testing? Do you happen to know whether there are other problems with sun.java2d.xrender=True? Thanks and Best Regards, Felix I have now been using this for ~0.5y in Debian Testing (including across the recent old -> new testing), and while it is very slow compared to the normal setup, it works - no corruption. Naturally this fixes corruption in other Java programs I was using too - other than the slowness, I haven't noticed any new issues. I have no experience with Java implementation or rendering stuff.

Long story is in this ubuntu bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-7/+bug/1101348 The xrender pipeline itself causes graphics artifacts in jdk7 without the patch provided in that launchpad entry (I think (not sure though) that Clemens Eiserer commented, that the patch is already in openjdk8). -- GitLab Migration Automatic Message -- This bug has been migrated to freedesktop.org's GitLab instance and has been closed from further activity.

Created attachment 62741 [details] Screenshot of the problem Using netbeans I stumbled over the problem, that for example the exception reporter shows distorted images, when scrolling to the right. Scrolling left redraw the image correctly. I build a minimal example programm, that exhibits the problem (will be attached in source and compiled as TestApp.tgz and TestApp.jar). Scrolling a few time right and left lead to the attached wrong.png. I'll attach xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log as attachments with wrong_ prefix. I tested with disabled acceleration (Option "NoAccel" "true") and there now text distortion is visible (see the ok_ prefixed attachements for mor info). This is ubuntu 12.04 running with the xorg-edgers repository.
