Public bug reported: When I type something in an xterm window, the text that I type have some artifacts, making it almost impossible to read. If I switch focus to some other window, the text looks normal, and when switching focus back to the xterm window the text still looks normal. It's only when I type that the text gets artifacts. See attached screenshot.
