Thanks Carsten, would this be a similar reason why my gkrellms half
disappear and then freeze (their rendering on the desktop is not
being refreshed)?
   
   no - gkrellems own window content is its problem (unless its being
   composited - then it may be a compositor thing). if its that gkrellem
   is gone and desktop didnt redraw - that is another bug too but i
   havent see anything like that
  
  Yes, it was the compositor!  Thank you.  :-)
  
  I found that once compositing was enabled I couldn't disable the darn
  thing! I had to blow away ~/.e and start again.
  
  BTW I do not have ecomorph installed or anything too heavy and the
  composite engine was set to Software not OpenGL. 
 
 still got your bug?

I'm on a different revision now (55768), different xorg-server (1.9.2), have 
enabled KMS in the kernel and do not have compositing enabled.  Too many 
things have changed to draw any parallels I guess, but:

I just re-enabled compositing (software) and unfortunately gkrellms still 
misbehave (they are not redrawn when a panel is added or removed).  

Also, I cannot disable compositing once I enable it.  Although I can untick 
it, the changes do not take.

Is there config file I can manually change this?

PS.  I do not dare enabling opengl for compositing because last time X would 
crash every time.

Scratch that!  All I had to do was unload the composite module, rather than 
just disable composite under Settings Panel/Advanced/Engine.

ok - something to do with shaped windows. i'm sure. ugh. pain in the arse with
compositing (shaped windows).

 Also, I cannot disable compositing once I enable it.  Although I can untick 
 it, the changes do not take.

oh that option so needs to change. the name is misleading entirely. must
remember to change the naming in the gui.

 Is there config file I can manually change this?

gl works nicely for me :) nvidia drivers (also works well on intel g45 - fglrx
is half-working (tfp not reliable but gl works). radeon open drivers from what
i hear dont work - dont know about nouvaeu.

Fair enough.  It's a nice to have for me.  I would only have it enabled if 
performance is not perceptibly affected anyway.
 

  Also, I cannot disable compositing once I enable it.  Although I can
  untick it, the changes do not take.

Now that I remembered I had to unload the module first, problem solved.  ;-)

I'm using the radeon open driver I'm afraid (xf86-video-ati-6.13.2 on gentoo) 
which probably explains why the crash.  However, I have not yet tried it with 
xorg-server-1.9.2.
