Summary: Screen update issues

Initial Comment:
In some cases, the tigervnc server on Linux does not update the screen 
correctly. One case that I can always reproduce is with the Cadence IC design 
software. When a property dialog is opened, there are often thin lines around 
some boxes which are not updated, but where I can still see what was present 
before the dialog opened. A screen redraw fixes the problem. This happens with 
versions 1.1.0 and 1.0.90, independent from the viewer (checked with tigervnc 
viewer and realvnc viewer on Windows XP clients).

Please check the attached example screenshot. Interestingly, the regions which 
are not redrawn are always just one-pixel wide lines.

Can you both report back what linux distro and release version you're
running Xvnc on?

Message:
I'm having the same issue with 1.1.0 and 1.1.80 versions of tigerVNC, when
running latest Fluxbox. 
Windows borders are no more refreshed when another Windows XP window got
the focus on top of the viewer.
The viewer "Refresh Screen" action renders everything back.

I tried tigervnc-Linux-x86_64-1.1.80.tar.gz which I downloaded on
2011-09-29 and it is not fixed there. I assume the archive did not change
since then, since it still has the same version number.

Have you tried the latest build from trunk
(http://www.virtualgl.org/DeveloperInfo/TigerVNCPreReleases), on the off
chance that this has already been fixed?

In case it is the problem mentioned by cendossm, would it be easy to fix?
It is really annoying.

I seem to recall we had a problem with not tracking window border changes,
but that we ignored it because basically all that used that feature was
twm. Maybe this is the same issue?
