Description
This generally happens when there are a LOT of apps running.
This doesn't happen all the time.
Try to launch Exposure and you get a screen that is re-drawing things a thousand times over. See attachment for more details.
Steps:
1) Launch all the applications you can
2) Press Top Bar, launch Exposure
3) Top Bar icons get re-drawn over and over as it returns to its place

this is exposure's window hanging around but exposure not flushing its x buffers or running the main loop to handle redraws. (i can see similar things right now in front of me). it's not illume here (never run exposure and everything else behaves fine).

actually no - i found it's a "ghost window" bug. that damn ghost window bug rears its head again, but this time in a nice repeatable way.

What is the "ghost window" bug ? That sounds scary but fits in the world of daemons, zombies, etc. ;-)
Exposure runs the mainloop all the time - should not be an issue.

Test with the image below:
kernel:20080720-asu.stable-uImage.bin
root file system:20080721-asu.stable-rootfs.jffs2
The ghost screen happened again, this time, it bring out device crashed.
Try for many times, can not totally reproduce this, but have similar result.
Sometimes even splinter happened, i wonder it's not a problem in illume.
please see attached photos.

i have yet to reproduce this in any way... so it's hard to do anything until we know just what is up. there was a time long ago when xglamo itself had bugs where it'd just lose the whole plot sometimes in the draw queue and everything that draws in x was screwed...

With the image below:

After the progress wheel is there, I never seen this happen.
I think this fixed.
