Description tercero12 2005-02-07 09:41:18 UTC
When using XF4vnc to share :0, the native console (not the remotely connected one) tears the screen when scrolling with a wheel mouse.  By this I mean that spaces around the mouse are not scrolled with the rest of the page.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge and follow setup instructions for xf4vnc
2. restart X
3. open Firefox to a page long enough to scroll
4. scroll with your wheel mouse and notice the rendering problems

Actual Results:  
whatever is under the mouse is copied around the screen.  The effect is most
dramatic if you move your mouse at the same time as scrolling.

Expected Results:  
It should display the mouse arrow cleanly and independently of surrounding area.
 It is reasonable to have this problem on a VNC connected client computer, but
not on the server.

Some things that may complicate this:
- I'm using ATI-drivers
- I have a PNG mouse

While this is happening, this happens regardless to the login status of a VNC
client.

Re-assign.

Try your luck upstream.
