Binary package hint: gdm
I have gdm-2.20.1-0ubuntu1 on gutsy.
1. Select Applications -> System Tools -> New Login in a Window.
Observe new GDM login window displayed. Good.
2. Minimise GDM window.
3. Maximise GDM window.
Observe the window is white, and not refreshed correctly. The cursor is
visible, and the user is still able to enter a login name.
I am running *without* Desktop Effects (compiz-fusion). Same thing happens with
both xorg nv driver and the restricted Nvidia driver.
The same thing happens if run from the command line, or from the User Switch
Applet (after selecting the 'Create new logins in nested windows' option).
Running from command line with debug enabled:
gdmflexiserver --xnest --debug

'new login in a window' should use Xephyr rather than Xnest
