![]() When I run the AUR bsnes package (the window appearance is quite buggy, with gray-on-black menubar and transparent window background on XShm), and opening any SNES game, bsnes loads my 12-thread CPU to nearly 40%. Perhaps there is a way to both avoid flicker on GTK+2 and not break GTK+3, but until we find it, I would rather occasional flicker on GTK+2 than permanently broken GTK+3. Even the menu-bar, which by default draws text in a very dark grey, so you can hardly read what it says. that background colour is used for everything. GTK+3 was designed around the more modern compositing model, which doesn't need that "default background colour" hack, and as a result when you set the window background colour on GTK+3. GTK+2 was designed around the X11 model, and so it works basically the way bsnes expects. Because the bsnes window is mostly black, bsnes sets its window background colour to black, so the flickering of X-server-drawn and application-drawn content will be less obvious. The X11 protocol gives each window a "default background colour", to be used by the X server to fill the blanks after the window manager has resized the window, but before the application has been able to repaint it. Specifically on X11, when the user resizes a window the window manager, the X server, and the application can all have different ideas about the exact window size. However, on some platforms that's not enough. When the window is resized, the hiro Viewport widget repaints itself, according to whatever hiro backend is in use. ![]() The bsnes window is mostly covered by the viewport, which is supposed to be black.
