I have run into this bug after upgrading from 4.4.4 to 4.5.2.

I have an i915 graphics card and I am using xf86-video-intel-2.12 driver.

As for previous reporters, this problem mainly manifests itself with konsole.
No repaint of konsole's window happens mainly when I switch tabs inside
konsole. The interesting detail is that konsole does repaint parts of terminal
that were recently updated. For example, if mc is copying a file, then a
progress bar is drawn, but the rest of terminal remains unrepainted.

In my configuration it is simple to reproduce this bug: launch mc and start
selecting files by holding insert key down -- in this case names of newly
selected become yellow and selected with a bar, but the names of files that
were selected several instants before are often left unchanged -- the selection
bar is not removed from them. I have attached an image that shows this
situation.

I have no desktop effects enabled except "dim parent window", so I believe that
this bug is not related to effects, but to detection of regions to be
repainted.

Temporarily disabling compositing makes the problem go away.
