It does not happen always. I said it is difficult to state exactly
under which circumstances it happens,
and I refuted some of my hypothesis. But one thing is commom to all
the occurences: It do not show the problem if I run
emacs as my only program. It do show when I run many other processes.
In practice this are mainly firefox
(with many (20 or more) open tabs), and Evince, the gnome document viewer,
also often many windows open. Most other programs I run within emacs.

A very short followup: Today the same (apparently) problem started to appear in another program, open office calc (which I use sparinlgly to communicate with windows types). Same symproms as with emacs, but a little less annoying. \Might this be a gnome problem?

Or it might be a problem with your video card/drivers. Eg (old issues, but similar kind of thing) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/55073 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2007-08/msg00646.html Anyway, I don't think there's anything we can do to help. It sounds more like the kind of thing to report to Ubuntu.
