Bug#431743: xbase-clients: [xsetroot] new background only seen after a window goes over it
Package: xbase-clients
Version: 1:7.2.ds2-2
Severity: important
After a xsetroot -solid white, the background stays the same. Only after passing
a window over it, it is redrawn with the correct color.
Marked as serious because I think root-tail is not working because of a common
problem (bug #429609).
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the latest X in lenny has all
extensions enabled by default. Which extension should be disabled for this to
work, and how do I do it?
I have already
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Disable"
Option "DAMAGE" "Disable"
EndSection
... in my xorg.conf, but it still does not work.
