Description Paul van Haren 2004-11-22 16:53:21 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)

Description of problem:
Most of the windows are not shown nor refreshed on my screen. 

On my monitor I do see the Fedora wallpaper and the Gnome toolbar. 
When pulling menu's, some of them are shown, others only after the 
cursor moves over the menu items!
Another example of malfunctioning behavior: when launching a 
terminal, the edges for the window terminal are drawn, but the inner 
window stays transparent. The same applies to many other 
applications. Whenever I move another window over the application, 
some parts of the application window gets updated. 

I made a clean install of Fedora core 3 on my computer and ran into 
this problem. Subsequently I've installed all available updates via 
up2date, but the problem remains. My computer previously ran Fedora 
core 2 without these problems.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
all versions from Fedora core 3 ISO images

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. on the desktop, right click and select "Open Terminal"
2.
3.
    

Actual Results:  The boundary of the terminal window appears on the 
desktop; the inner window is transparent.

Expected Results:  A regular terminal window with a white inner 
window.

Additional info:

My computer is a regular Compaq EN, with a Intel 815 graphics chip 
and 4 MB of graphics memory.
