Bug Description

I am using the interpid beta with all update run as of 9/10/08.

With compiz enabled sometimes window are not being repainted properly when the content changes, e.g. when i switch tabs in firefox the last page remains and as I move the mouse over the page certain parts those parts show up. It happens with all apps though - not just firefox , another example is in compiz setting manager, when i switch beetween different categories the button dont show up in the white are until i mouse over them or move the window.

When moving the window a repaint seems to be forced and the content shows up as expected. It seems like content is being cached and is only refreshes after some user event.

Same here on Dell XPS m1710 - Nvidia 7950 GTX. Most noticable scrolling ccsm and some apps. Also Icons not redrawing when they update on teh cairo bar. Black squares on images and text not scrolling vertically properly, mouseing over redraws them however.
I'm using Intrepid + compiz, been playing around to find a common behaviour will update if I notice anything more.
