render issue in terminal in fedora-15

[Lionel Landwerlin]

Hi,

I've been experiencing the same kind of redrawing problem with
gnome-terminal. People pointed me to this patch :

http://git.gnome.org/browse/mutter/commit/?id=2dc5693c60a2952fdb703098c5e50d80eb976f86

Since I recompiled mutter with this patch on my distro I'm not
reproducing the problem any more.

Hope that helps.
