19 (this is pasted from my mail reporting the compilation problem...so
20 all that does recompile fine and was updated)
21
22 was updated and I installed Linux 3.12.17 (vanilla) and recompiled
23 the nvidia-drivers and finally the X11-modules, a really annoying
24 thing happened:
25
26 When a program uses the screen overlay technique (right word???) to
27 display (mainly) videos (me-tv, flashplayer, Blender while rendering)
28 ANY and everything on any desktop, which has a black background (mutt,
29 urxvt to only name a few) displays the video even the video
30 application runs on a different desktop.
31
32 Handling the desktops then becomes a masterpieces of focus and
33 counting.... ;)
34
35 I am using openbox, nvidia-drivers, linux 3.12.17 vanilla, me-tv,
36 flashplayer, blender (daily build taken from blenders buildbot).
37
38 What can I do to get rid of this effect?
39
40 Best regards,
