Artifacts in XFWM window decorations

Hello,

I'm using XFCE and recently had to ditch the proprietary Nvidia driver and switch to nouveau (I've got a pretty old GeForce 9500 GT and legacy drivers are not supported under new kernels). The only thing that bugs me now is that I see artifacts in window title bars.

Distribution: Void Linux (rolling distro). Fresh XFCE. No compositing.

Here is how it looks: http://0x0.st/ixst.png and http://0x0.st/ixnt.png. And here is how it should look: http://0x0.st/ixsv.png

It can be seen from the very start of the system. Logging out and logging back in solves the issue for me.

Here are my logs:

dmesg.log

Xorg.0.log

lxdm.log

Switching to kernel modesetting driver completely fixes the problem.

Is there anything I should provide for you?

Thank you.
