Thanks Dave Gilbert. Unsetting the LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR environmental variable does fix the problem with display of the xlog "Remarks Field".

Text can be then typed and, although not displayed in the QSO Entry form, can be successfully saved. The saved text is then visible in the Saved QSO List. The same problem is noted using Unity, Gnome, Gnome Classic, Xfce and KDE desktops with Ubuntu 12.04 i-386 32 bit desktop version. My computer is a Lenovo T61p Thinkpad with an Intel processor with Nvidia graphics chip. xlog is v 2.0.5-2 I installed a previous version, I think 2.0.2 and found the same problem. I just created a Linux Mint 13 DVD with Cinnamon Desktop, which is built on Ubuntu, and the Remarks entry field is properly displayed when xlog is run from the Live DVD. I have read a report that this problem has existed since Ubuntu 11.10. I looked through the xlog C source code. Though not a skilled C programmer, it appears to me that the problem is not in the xlog source but maybe in the GTK+ library function which is called to draw the display box. Is there a workaround for this problem? Not being able to enter Remarks severely limits the use of this program for my needs. Thank you.
