OK, I upgraded to the latest (4.3.0-8) rawhide version of XFree86 and its various rpm friends (Xfree86*.rpm), and I worked my way through all 20 or so of these options listed on the man page. I found the culprit: Option "XaaNoScreenToScreenCopy" Adding this option made the symptoms go away; none of the others had any effect. Of course, now I have a slow refresh when I scroll a web page, for example, if I leave this option enabled. So just enabling this option isn't much of a long-term solution. Any further suggestions as to what to do? > On 5 May 2003, Mike Godfrey wrote: > >>Date: 05 May 2003 10:32:25 -0400 >>From: Mike Godfrey <[email protected]> >>To: Mike A.
