Hi Robert,

Any suggestions on this? The problems occur as soon as I enable DRI. xv 
is working, however I have the issue(s) below:

I have some weird things going on now...

Sometimes when I drag a window, a copy of the window is left behind in 
the previous position (background is not restored), refer to this 
screenshot:

I have mozilla firefox open. I have dragged the window down but there is 
still image data at the top where the image previously was. If I close 
the application both images are cleared and everything appears normal.

Similar things happen in a terminal window as well. If i issue the 
"clear" command to clear the window contents, part of the window are 
cleared but there are still characters here and there from the previous 
screen content.

Any ideas?
