Is your graphics driver nVidia 185.18.14? Changes to winex11 in 1.1.43 exposed a bug in that driver, and possibly others. If your card is nVidia, upgrading to 195.36.15 will solve it. If your graphics card is from some other manufacturer, upgrade to their latest driver, and if that doesn't fix it, file a bug with them.
