Bug Description

Display ghosting when dragging icons or opening menus.
Have tested several machines and this only occurring on Intel NUC 8i3BEK - and only when
installing or using FOCAL Lubuntu 20.04 .

This also is occurring in the Live sessions before install.

I have tested Lubuntu Eoan 19.01 and Lubuntu Bionic 18.04.04 on this machine and cannot reproduce the issue.

Haven't heard any complaints about this in a long time so I'm guessing this is no longer an issue.

In any case, it's likely not an lxqt-session one if it still is a bug.

Changed in lxqt-session (Ubuntu):
