Description ellson 2002-07-08 11:51:05 EDT

Description of Problem:
When a window overlaps xatv is moved, the entire screen is refreshed
rather than just the one window.  When a window that doesn't overlap
xawtv is moved only local window refreshing is done as expected.

Hardware is Matrox G450 dual-head.  Window manager is Gnome
(Gnome2 from rawhide).  Focus-follows-mouse.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xawtv-3.74-4
XFree86-4.2.0-52
kernel-smp-2.4.18-5.62
gnome-libs-1.4.1.2.90-18
rawhide-release-20020708-1

How Reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. move window to overlap xawtv's window
2. move window small amount so that it still overlaps xawtv's window
3. 

Actual Results:
Screen refreshes

Expected Results:
Window refresh only

Comment 1 ellson 2002-07-16 15:02:00 EDT

Problem is fixed by adding
  Load  "v4l"
to the Modules section of /etc/X11/XF86Config-4

Since I created XF86Config-4 manually to deal with my dual-head configuration
I have to assume that this bug is my own fault.
