>Description:
	fvwm-2.5.10 compiled against X.org doesn't properly refresh
the screen when moving windows.   Windows that have been moved contain
a "footprint" of windows that have been under them.   For example, 
see a screen dump of an xterm window at 
http://www.math.uic.edu/~vladimir/xterm.jpg

X config is at http://www.math.uic.edu/~vladimir/XF86Config; and
.fvwm2rc is at
http://www.math.uic.edu/~vladimir/fvwm2rc

There is no problem with fvwm2 port (fvwm version 2.4.x), or other window
managers (I've tried kde and good old twm).

I've reported the problem to fvwm mailing list (fvwm at fvwm.org), but
so far there has been no responces.

fvwm2-devel plus XFree86-4.3 work ok.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Compile fvmw2-devel with x.org
>Fix:

	I wish I knew :-)
