23.0.60: Images flicker at cursor-blink rate when emacs is run in X-over-ssh |
|

I almost always run Emacs in X forwarded via SSH. I've noticed that
with doc-view and everything that displays large images. the image
flickers at the same rate of the cursor blink. When the flicker
happens, I see white horizontal bands of various widths (usually 1 or
2) in different places across the image, for brief instants.
When I turn off the cursor with (setf cursor-type nil) the flickering goes away.
In GNU Emacs 23.0.60.2 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit)
of 2008-02-27 on pod
Windowing system distributor `The X.Org Foundation', version 11.0.10300000
configured using `configure '--with-xft' '--enable-font-backend'
'--without-toolkit-scroll-bars' '--with-x-toolkit=lucid'
'--prefix=/opt''

I believe this has been fixed (or at least worked around) by setting
cursor-type to nil.
