Stupid question: Have you tried a different window manager?I have the black-bits problem, too, but only when I use fvwm, not in GNOME (I just happen to like fvwm). Dragging and xterm over the affected areas fixes that (you have probably already worked that one out). Also for me the middle mouse button does not work on x86, StarOffice 8 and fvwm. Sun have acknowledged that this one is a bug in StarOffice, but since it works with GNOME, there is not sufficient customer demand to fix it.... :-(

Does your Sun Ray server have a graphics console on which you can try these operations?It works fine from the graphics console, and also from SSGD, but no other apps exhibit the issue at all...Brian Knoblauch wrote:I've noticed a few issues now that I've been unable to resolve, and that seem specific to SunRay usage. Note that I'm currently running Update 7 of SO8. I had to back out the U8 patch because it makes heavy red lines obscure large parts of spreadsheets (not SunRay specific, happens over SSGD as well). Anyways, the SunRay specific issues are: - When in "busy" (lots of text and colors) spreadsheets, paging/scrolling about sometimes results in large portions of the screen turning black. That not only includes the spreadsheet itself, but can include the launch bar, etc. Cables test good, no dropped packets, etc. This is on an x64 system, unable to duplicate on SPARC. Not sure if this is a real SunRay issue, or StarOffice... - When selecting large areas of spreadsheets, the selection box flashes between normal/reverse video quite rapidly for up to a minute AFTER the user stops actively selecting the area. Also seems to be x64 specific, unable to duplicate on SPARC. Sounds like it's a StarOffice issue, but wondering if it might be SunRay?
