xorg-server @1.20.11_1: Problem displaying x11 windows in Tahoe

Reported by: fvaccari Owned by: jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)

Description

After updating to Tahoe, x11 windows don't show up/refresh properly. A simple gs of a PostScript file leads to a completely black window. Resizing the window updates its content, often with glitches. Same problems using gv or other third-party x11-based apps.

I just tested the display of PostScript files with gs and the refresh problem I had in Tahoe is apparently solved thanks to macOS 26.5. See release notes in:

https://support.apple.com/en-us/124963

and see also the recent comments in:

https://github.com/XQuartz/XQuartz/issues/438

I must say that the same .ps files visualized with gv appear with a wrong aspect ratio, but this may possibly be a different issue. In any case no refresh problem in gv either.

Give it a try if you faced the refresh issue with some X11 apps.

I can also confirm that this issue is fixed with the release of macOS 26.5. I tested it with xdot, xschem, and KLayout launched in the IIC-OSIC-TOOLS container executed by podman.
