Re: X11 windows redraw problems ATI



Hi,

X11 apparently got a bit worse again, whole windows do not redraw correctly but get random content and need to be minimized/reopened to get a refresh, when covered damaged sections contain garbage... Not all apps, e.g. xterm seems to work, but all GNUstep applications are affected (GS from source, not packages, but that should not matter)

Up to a couple of months ago, this was enough:
Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
        Driver          "ati"
        Option          "ForcePCIMode"  "True"
        Option          "EXANoComposite" "True"
#       Option          "NoAccel" "True"
EndSection
If I disable all acceleration (NoAccel) it works in 24bit, but it is slow.

Best of course would have be to have 16bit working correctly with full accel, but that needs a driver fix.
