I've been trying to figure out what causes the corruption of the display when using the compositing manager in the metacity WM. So far I can see this only when compositing is enabled and it also happens with compiz it seems. Got a screenshot here: http://www.gnome.org/~kmaraas/Skjermdump.png Compiled the latest code from git and tested it. The kernel is 2.6.24-rc6 based.
Please provide the following info: x.org log xorg.conf specific machine model if applicable. thanks.

Created attachment 13476 [details] Xorg log file This is Xorg.log when compositing is disabled. I don't think that should differ from the case where it's enabled though?

using xserver git? Could you try current tip with Michel's patch? And which version of mesa are you using? I tried compiz on my 945gm yesterday with all tips, which seems work fine.
I'm rejecting this bug due to no response from the bug reporter. Please reopen with response to comment# 6. thanks.
