Description Matt 2007-06-13 20:54:35 UTC

If compositing support is enabled, Nedit 5.5 can show strange artifacts when scrolling upward.  This is discussed, and a patch is attached, at the attached URL.  Since there have been no new Nedit releases, this patch should probably go into portage.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Emerge Nedit 5.5 and Xorg (6.8 or above)
2. Enable the "composite" extension in xorg.conf and restart X
3. Edit a multi-page file with Nedit, and scroll up and down

Actual Results:  
Upward scrolling results in garbled text

Expected Results:  
Normal scrolling
