host: Intel HD3000 with driver i965
guest: Spice protocol, qxl driver
Comment 4 Marc-Andre Lureau 2012-05-17 14:25:56 UTC 
thanks Martin,

could you give the xorg-qxl driver version from the guest?
could you also try with spicec? spicec -h localhost -p "590X" (depending on the number of VM you have)
Comment 5 Martin Holec 2012-05-17 15:21:09 UTC 
xorg-x11-drv-qxl-0.0.22-0.fc17.x86_64
I can reproduce this also with spicec.
Comment 6 Marc-Andre Lureau 2012-05-17 17:19:28 UTC 
it could be a mesa software rending bug. I guess you won't have those glitch in fallback mode. If it's the case, we should move that bug to redhat bugzilla xorg-qxl. It's not a Boxes or spice-gtk bug I guess.
Comment 7 Marc-Andre Lureau 2012-05-17 22:28:42 UTC 
ajax, the bug 674208 is related to this one? (see screenshot attached to the bug)
Comment 8 Martin Holec 2012-05-28 15:20:43 UTC 
No glitches in fallback mode like on screenshot above (only minor vsync glitch).

I've seen those vsync glitches too. Since I dont see the same in winxp, I'm guessing its some qxl driver bug.
Comment 10 Marc-Andre Lureau 2012-09-03 14:02:43 UTC 
I can't see rendering glitches with f17 & current boxes/spice-gtk. If you still get rendering glitches, please reopen.
