Errors in "Datablock menu" visualization in full screen mode.

Description

When Blender is started in full screen mode (default on Linux), the datablocks menus are not visible.

To better understand, the blenwin.jpg image is how I visualize the menu. The blenwin2.jpg is how it should be, instead.

Apply on all blender versions, on a Linux machine, compiled with GCC 4.1.0 on an ATI Radeon Mobility card (IGP320M).

We've had more complaints about this. It is related to an opengl (driver) bug, or maybe even to the window manager you have.
The only work around now is to start blender with a window border (blender -w).

We need a developer with such issue to disect the exact reason for it... maybe you can help? Be assured this issue doesn't happen on (most) other linux systems, nor in windows or osx.

This is a generic request to test your bug report and see if it is still an issue in 2.5alpha2 if so please let me know by making a comment in this report ie 'also in 2.5alpha2' and I will add it to the 2.5 bug list.
