Comment 18 for bug 118983

I voted under bug 6632124. Here is my info:

The windows are drawn without content about 30% of the time. Repeatedly closing and re-opening an affected window or dialog box will eventually bring up one that has content.

This bug happens only when extra visual effects (compiz) are enabled. When no visual effects are enabled, the bug does not happen. Additionally, it appears not to happen when Metacity WM is enabled (and compiz is disabled).

additional info:

additional info:
I can confirm that making the apparently empty window (or dialog) extremely large will show some of its content. (If I could make it large enough, I would assume it would show all content.)
