Some more information please:
- what videocard, videomemory and driver
- what color depth
- running composite?
- using things like XGL or AIGLX with a GL compositing manager?

I have a fairly basic all-intel laptop hp compaq nx5000. Here's the relevant (I hope) part of the output from lshwd, and the sections from xorg.conf. I don't know if this is enough?

Try disabling the composite extension.

That worked. Fair enough - I enabled it to try out something which didn't really work anyway... I can live without it. Problem solved - thanks
