Sorry for late replying your email. The situation is attached as the picture and we use the "rdesktop", a remote connect tool to control English Server 2003, the text part will be broken. 1. After setting the option "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps" or "XaaNoScreenToScreenCopy" I can't reproduce the problem. I know these two option will let the XAA determine whether it can call the call back functions that driver registered in the beginning. 2. If I reduce the memory size reported to FBmanager, less than 4Mb, it will also disappear. I know this behavior will let the XAA generate less big slots. 3. if I use xinit instead of windows manager to activate the Xserver, execute "rdesktop" in xterm. It will disappear. 4. So far it only happens on the English Server 2003, and English XP is OK. 5. use kernel 2.4.X it will disappear, but kernel 2.6.X will fail. I am right now studying the source codes to realize the relationships between 1 and 2. But I really confuse why the 3, 4 and 5 will happen. I am not quite sure whether it was a bug of XAA, the windows manager or even the driver's fault. But from 3, I guess it may not driver's fault. If you have any opinions about this bug, please let me know. Appreciate your help in advance.

I wouldn't expect the behavior of an XFree86 graphics driver to change with a kernel except for, perhaps, something related to 3D using the DRI. I suppose it's also possible that a kernel framebuffer device could interfere with an xfree86 driver in some way. The XFree86 sis driver has a "NoAccel" option you can use to force software rendering. If there is still rendering corruption with that option, that would suggest that it's not a driver acceleration problem. Mark.
