Binary package hint: wine

I have installed Source Insight, v3.50.0058 (http://www.sourceinsight.com), under Wine (0.9.58-0ubuntu2) under Hardy Beta.

Source Insight is a code editor and browser. You can install a time-limited copy if you want.

Anyway, having used this under Wine under Ubuntu for 18 months, with only a couple of niggly problems, I decided to upgrade (by doing a wipe + fresh install) to Hardy Beta. Since then, Source Insight has exhibited major problems.

These all centre around NOT refreshing the screen after things happen:

(1) Opening a new source-file window and moving it. Also resizing an existing window.

(2) Minimising and then maximising the Source Insight window itself.

In both cases, the screen inside the Source Insight window does not refresh. Moving the window around the screen does nothing (except get a nice swirly pattern of a repeating window title-bar inside the window itself.

The only way I have found to cure the problem and make the window refresh itself is to switch to the second workspace, wait a few seconds (until the window with the "Go to left workspace ..." pops up) and then switch back. THEN the window refreshes. Sometimes. If it does not, switch to the other workspace again and wait longer before switching back.

This is on a Dell D620 with an nVidia "G72M [Quadro NVS 110M/GeForce Go 7300]" and a second Dell 2007FP display attached. I'm running the graphics in TwinView mode (which means a manually configured xorg.conf, attached).

Going to System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Visual Effects shows that "None" is currently active.
