Public bug reported:

rxvt sometimes produce corrupted output. It happens during or after
scrolling. I observe mess inside window: lines are not rendered
correctly or in correct place. After changing size of window everything
is ok until something new appears in the window.

See exemplary screenshots: http://kwant.info.pl/pics/zrzut_ekranu-13.png

It happens only with my custom rxvt settings (nothing strange happen
under standard settings):

/usr/bin/rxvt +sb -fg green2 -bg black -sl 4096 -fn -misc-fixed-
bold-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-80-iso8859-2 -fb -misc-fixed-bold-r-normal
--13-120-75-75-c-80-iso8859-2

I'm not sure, however this situation starts with Ubuntu 8.10 or after
upgrading nvidia driver to the 180.xx version. Before Ubuntu 8.10
everything was ok (since Ubuntu 7.04 I'm using gnome or KDE4 with
compiz). This strange behaviour has been observed only on Ubuntu, under
distro gentoo with similar settings rxvt works perfectly ok.

Kwant!
