Daniel, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xorg-server REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Thank you for your understanding.

But when moving another not-Xnest-window over it and then away again, the parts of gedit in the Xnest window are not redrawn automatically. only parts of it when moving or clicking around (which is normal behavior in such application). gedit is only an example, the problem happens with all applications, and also with metacity loaded in Xnest. Only xlogo (and maybe other test applications) seems to realize it has to update itself.
