Hi all,
we have discovered a very ugly Sun Ray Software related problem which
causes the display not to be updated correctly, e.g. when popping up a
combobox and scrolling through the items, or when scrolling through a
text view or when clicking on items in a container view (actually
NSView sublcasses on some other NSView subclass). "Display is not
updated correctly" means that some stuff simply is not drawn.
This problem can't be Solaris related since it does not occur when we
access the machine via Secure Global Desktop or directly on the
console. It occurs only when using Sun Rays.
We haven't been able to reproduce this with GNOME apps, it occurs only
with GNUstep apps. But I can't blame GNUstep alone, since it works
flawless on all flavors of Unix and even on Solaris when working on
the console or via a SGD connection. The problem only occurs in
combination with Sun Rays.
Any hints are greatly appreciated!
Richard Frith-Macdonald recommended the following:
Is the problem with both the art and xlib backends?
Is it with both GSX11HandlesWindowDecorations user default set to 1
and 0 ?
Is it with both XWindowBufferUseXShm user default set to 1 and 0?
Checking those variations could localise the problem.
and
defaults write NSGlobalDomain XWindowBufferUseXShm 0
indeed solved this problem. Live is great!!!
Regards,
Andreas
