UI2 with alpha blending - menu keeps redrawing

[savvycenter]

When I use the alpha blending, the menus just keep redrawing (feel like it is flashing). After I select a Video menu, the whole screen keeps redraw just like flashing. The background picture is fine, but all the foreground keeps redraw.

Does anybody know how to fix this problem?

What hardware are you using?

I am using a BIOSTAR AMD motherboard with a build-in Nvidia GeForce 7050 graphics card.  I am using the latest nvidia linux driver which just added support for the 7050.

I too had this issue. Although... and this is really strange... At first alpha-blending turned on by itself when I switched monitors and everything was drawing fine... just real slow. Check my "X, Transparency, and CPU Usage" thread for details. Then when I tried to launch the AV Wizard again it got stuck in and endless loop. After rebooting this issue appeared. My solution was to just disable alpha-blending (still UI2) by manually launching the AV Wizard. Again see the other thread for how I did that.
