Comment 247 for bug 353126

Hi again,

Just reading Rocko's post #239, I'm more convinced that there's more to this than just Xdamage. The problem does *not* occur and the -noxdamage workaround is *not* needed if one turns off all compiz special effects, right? So, doesn't that suggest that it's not just an Xdamage issue, but rather an interaction between Xdamage and compiz in special-effects mode? I guess to me a key question is why *do* things work with compiz in non-special-effects mode? Surely Xdamage is used by compiz in any mode, no?
