I did try, but to cut a long story, related things entirely wrecked my xorg stuff, and I've only just recovered (more or less) after a few wasted days ... Can you precisely identify what happened before the problem occurs e.g. upon click toolbar button ? Is it only when the response to the <button|menu> is a pop-up dialog ? What happens if you type-in the action assigned to the <button|menu>, instead ? In file emelfm2.h, at about line 645, there is //#define NATIVE_BGL Can you try a rebuild with that line un-commented ? This change will break some things, sometimes resulting in X problems similar to the one you're reporting, but I'm interested to know if the behaviour changes in any way. I looked at a few diffs between gtk 2.14.7 and 2.16.0, for the files most-obviously related to e2's filelist UI, but can't see anything offensive. Maybe there's something in glib. With arch, are you able to selectively revert packages ? If so, can you try with previous glib/gtk/atk/pango ? I doubt that the randr packages you upgraded would be relevant.
