Screenshot of issue.

When compiled virt-manger versions 1.3.2 or 1.4.0 against gtk+ v3.20.x, there are errors in display rendering. See the attached screenshot for more details.

I had to downgrade GTK+ to v3.18.9 and recompile virt-manager to make it work right.

This is the upstream bug report I filed:

Hope this is useful.

I see the same issue with other applications, specifically at least:

nm-applet
firefox-bin

Downgrading and recompiling the apps helps. Something seems broken with gtk+-3.20.6.

If you need any more information, feel free to ask.
