Maybe the X server has too little memory to store the window contents
for you? I'm using RedHat 7.0 with XFree86 4.0 without a problem,
except when I iconify the window and restore it.

I have the same problem as Eric Newman.  I'm using RH 6.1 with XFree86 3.3.5 and RH 7.0 with XFree86 4.0.1, both of them with KDE2 (same source).  I don't think there is a resource problem on the box running X 4.0.1 as there are 256MB of ram in it and 512MB of swap, unless there is a limit on the amount of resources X allocates.  I'm not aware of any such limit.

Regards,
Sveinn.
