15 Same problem here, running ~amd64, hit the problem when I upgraded
16 last Wednesday. Ditto for Urxvt, Emacs, and Claws. I tried downgrading
17 from x86-video-intel-2.99.906 to 2.99.905-r1 which fixed the glitch, but
18 then when I clicked on lists in Claws, X would randomly crash.

20 Maybe time to try downgrading more than just the video drivers; I also
21 upgraded other X packages at the time, including xorg-server.
