This issue still persists in Ubuntu 11.10. Please consider adding the patch suggested at the end of comment 3 on the freedesktop.org bug report to the Ubuntu patch set, as it simply comments out a check for a "buggy_repeat" flag against X.org 6.9. Since Ubuntu distributes a newer X.org, the buggy_repeat check is unnecessary. I verified the patch against the cairo 1.10.2-6ubuntu3 source package (had to adjust the line offsets) -- it resolves the issue with NX.
