I've got the same problem since upgrading to Maverick. wmbattery also has similar corruption. Happens for me using intel, radeon, or fglrx drivers with compiz/emerald. Does not happen if I switch to enlightenment. I've only tried 64-bit Ubuntu, so it may be a 64-bit issue.
I believe this is the same problem as well: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=614542 ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #614542 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=614542 -- Garbled chars in xterm https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/635258 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
