Public bug reported:

Vino, the built in VNC server in Ubuntu, has had a problem for many
releases : if compositing is enabled, it doesn't correctly update the
display when connected remotely. The present bug is filed for
configurations using the Intel driver.

Other bugs report exactly the same issue but in other graphics configurations :
- Bug #915906 is related to the ATI open source driver,
- Bug #772873 to the fglrx driver. Please refer to it for more information.

The present bug has been observed on Oneiric, on a computer with an i915
chipset, in the following configuration :
