I didn't want to criticize your implementation. :)

Well, "nv" driver has no OpenGL if I'm informed right.

Anyway, I tried it with the "nv" driver and there's the same problem.
Small screenshot attached (I hope that's ok on the list [1.1 kByte]).
The application is self-written (qpamat), but I also reproduced it with
xfcalendar.

Anyway, I personally would say the problem is not the composite
extension but the systray implementation since I encounter similar
problems sometimes when changing theme color (even if the systray is in
taskbar). But that's from user's perspective, not from developer's.


Regards,
 Bernhard
