multiwindow broken?

multiwindow broken?

[Ben Jackson]

I have been (successfully) using XWin with -multimonitor -multiwindow
recently. However, since upgrading to the latest release (via setup.exe -
4.2.0-3) the multiwindow support seems to have gone crazy... it opens the
window ok (if in the top corner of the /other/ monitor), but then when I try
to move the window, I end up with two versions of the window being rendered,
and neither of them seem to respond, or redraw themselves. Has something
been changed? I'm running windows XP with 2 monitors, one at 1024x768
(left), one at 1280x1024(right). I've tried putting them to the same res and
it made no difference. I presume it works without multimonitor, but as I
cant move the windows that appear (they appear off the top of my left
screen) I can't be sure...

Thanks for any help.

Regards,

Ben Jackson

4.2.0-3 of what?  The only really useful version number is the version 
of the XFree86-xserv package, and the current version is 4.3.0-49. 
Update tomorrow and see how it works.

I have been having the same problem.  Attached is my XWin.log.

To clarify:  2 screens.  Any movement of a window makes it enter a state
where it is all white when on the right screen, and will display normally on
the left screen, except for the cursor.

I miss my rootless, multiwindow display!

Thanks,
Dan

Hmm... maybe Takuma will know something about this since he was recently 
changing code related to windows not redrawing correctly.

Takuma, any ideas?
