Does anyone here who is using Gnome fallback has lack of screen
refreshing (using Intel SNA)?

Context: on Skype chat window, I start typing, and frequently whatever
you type isn't painted. Moving the window forces the refresh and the
text is effectively there.
I don't have any near-term plans to work on SNA, certainly not until
upstream is confident enough in it to make it the default.  If it works
for you, great; it breaks, you and upstream get to decide what to do
with the pieces.

Probably unrelated but similar issue, though _without_ SNA (having an intel 4500MHD, using rawhide): sometime after mid-july I have started suffering severe redrawing issues, see [1] and [2]. Unfortunately I spent a few weeks working with the discreet graphics, so I missed the version after which issues started appearing. I am now gradually testing older xorg-x11-drv-intel packages to try to identify when breakage started, I suspect it is sometime after xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.20.0-1.20120718.fc18. Issue appears only after some time, and is definitely an intel issue (switching to the AMD discreet card it works fine). Also, GTK applications are affected much more severely than Qt ones. I was hoping to gather more information before filing a bug, (at least which version causes the breakage) but since this was brought up, here it goes...
