Bug Description

Ubuntu 9.04, X86-32, default settings:
Reported by several users, MSEgui applications
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mseide-msegui/
are displayed distorted on Ubuntu 9.04, see screenshots. I was not able to reproduce the problem with simple xlib calls so attached a test binary. Click on the window title to see the distorted image. It seems it happens if xcopyarea() and possibly a xfillrectangle() with a stipple bitmap and xsetcliprectangles() calls are followed by a xdrawlines() call. Additionally it depends on timing. Sometimes it helps to place a 20ms sleep instruction before the xdrawlines() call.

@Fabio Marconi
You are a robot, aren't you? I don't use Ubuntu so I don't know what Lucid is. We didn't get Ubuntu complaints from our users recently, maybe the problem has gone. You could check yourself, there is a testcase in bug report. There was absolutely no response from Ubuntu team after reporting the problem...

Sorry for you, but i'm not a robot.
I one month i've readed something like 1000 (of 2500) bug report without package assigned (thanks)
I'm not payed to do this.
I'm not a native english speaker and sometime for me understand what you want to refer require much attention, this is not the
 case, but fatigue is payed on first with attention.

This report was one of that 2500, and i'm running with one year of delay.
So don't call me robot, sometimes i do something wrong.
