I just upgraded to X.org 6.8.1 from X.org 6.7.0. This was part of a complete Slackware 10 -> 10.1 upgrade. The computer is a: Dell Optiplex GX110 256 MB RAM i810 video driver 2.6.10 kernel with DRI (i810) and agppgart support compiled into the kernel (not a module). When I start X KDE loads and every window, even menus all have transparent backgrounds. The windows do not refresh when moving from one menu option to another. If I can I will attach a screenshot as well as my X.org log and xorg.conf. I did a bug search for all/open and did not find any report like this so I wanted to post it.
Created attachment 1876 [details] Screenshot This is a screenshot of my problem.
Created attachment 1877 [details] X,org log file This is my X.org log file
Created attachment 1878 [details] X.org configuration file This is my X.org configuration file
This was not a major problem. The fix to make it work is in the Device section a driver option needs to be set for "Accel" "false". I still believe it is a bug because I have to use the driver in a less than optimal state. Unless this is a design issue.
According to this thread a fix has been created. I have installed the CVS i810 driver and it works for me. http://groups-beta.google.com/group/alt.os.linux.slackware/browse_thread/thread/6f2b8b1be7724234/20f5cc896f38a461?q=slackware+i810&_done=%2Fgroups%3Fq%3Dslackware+i810%26start%3D0%26scoring%3Dd%26&_doneTitle=Back+to+Search&&d#20f5cc896f38a461 The thread points to this bugzilla entry for the i810 driver. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=1363
