Its related with https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=949058:
Occaionally, any new opened window (explorers, libreoffice, firefox, terminal, etc) will go black and making it unusuable unless I restart X.
After installing Fedora 22 (this issue occurred before, on Debian 8 "Jessie"), I've got corrupted graphics (images wrong displayed - as showed here: http://youtu.be/RdPf8SLv_k0) - tried the fix in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=949058#c16, but it not solved the issue (it seemed to have no effect at all - I think "AccelMethod" it's already set to "sna"...).
Based on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=949058#c16 and some googling, I've tried it:
################# begin file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ #################
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "intel"
Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"
EndSection
################# end file #################
... it corrected the graphics (images are displayed correctly!), but the black boxes occurred again after some use (like on Debian)...
