[Bug 472408] Re: R data editor not usable when desktop effects enabled

[Logan Lewis]

I can't reproduce the drawing issue with metacity --replace either.  I
haven't yet tried it under KDE 4 with desktop effects enabled.

I did, however, try compiling the latest R from source.  It required
libxt-dev (which I got from the 9.10 repositories), but it had the same
problem under compiz.  I'm not terribly familiar with the underlying
workings of the R code, but the xt library is pretty low-level for X11
programming.  I googled briefly for bugs with compiz and libxt, but only
turned up some old Java bugs.  There's obviously still more work to be
done to figure out if it's a general Compiz problem, something specific
to the Ubuntu build of Compiz (or libxt/X11), or something bug within R
which only affects this particular setup.
