No, this was a fresh install. I didn't keep anything from the old
installation. There is no xorg.conf file.

Yeah, I've already checked that. It's running the Intel driver and
there is nothing else obvious in the log file. I agree that it doesn't
seem to be redrawing the backing store. I just wish I knew *why*.
There are options to force the driver to do "special" things via an
xorg.conf file (I know there's none now, but you can add one). Have
a look at the various options in "man 4 intel". Perhaps one of those is
the "magic bullet" for you (you did say it was older hardware).
