System Information
System: Manjaro Fringilla 16.10.3 64-bit
Processor: 2x AMD A6-6400K APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics
OpenGL Renderer: Gallium 0.4 on AMD ARUBA (DRM 2.43.0 / 4.4.51-1-MANJARO, LLVM 3.9.1)

Blender Version
2.78b x64 (from tar file)

Short description of error
A weird glitch on the editor.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Just open the editor and start moving the cursor around, when hovering some regions the editor suddenly becomes a mess. I have the latest drivers available on linux for my graphics card so it could be something related to Arch/Manjaro (I hope it isn't, I love this system).

Here's an image:

P.S. That Link's awakening textures, it's actually my wallpaper, it's somehow being dragged by this glitch.

EDIT: Maybe it has something to do with this one: https://developer.blender.org/T37504 I have XFCE with no compiz or any other kind of visuals.

Its highly likely that this bug is specific to your hardware/driver configuration.
These kinds of display issues are often caused by OpenGL driver bugs.

While its possible a software error in Blender,
its worth checking if this functions correctly...

After upgrading graphics card drivers.
On a different system (with different hardware/drivers).
Using a Software OpenGL renderer...
- On Linux, Official releases come with blender-softwaregl
- On MS-Windows: Downloading 'opengl32.dll' from download.blender.org/ftp/sergey/softwaregl and copying it so its located in the same directory as 'blender.exe'

If this is a driver bug, or we can't link to this to an error in Blender's code,
the report may be closed as a driver error,
so please help us determine whether this is a bug in Blender or not.

I didn't know about the software renderer. Since it seems to work fine running with that, and according to what I've found on the internet about that fact, I guess it's (as you say) indeed a driver/opengl problem. Please feel free to close this issue nd I'll keep digging on from other angle. Thanks!
