Filled about it a bug-report @ Gentoo's bugzilla, they
told me to fill here too...
So here's the bug's link:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77818

In short:
Currently I just upgraded to xfce 4.2 rc3 and some of
my system update included torsmo(Which i'm in love too).
But now it seems to me that there is some problem: when
I start torsmo it
draws on the screen, but then disappears. After moving
some window to (or
over) that area of the desktop then move back torsmo
reappears, then - as it
updates - disappears again :-(
Didn't know if it's a torsmo or xfdesktop problem, but
the guys @
bugzilla.xfce told that it shoul be a torsmo problem.
My things are:
$ torsmo -V
torsmo 0.18 compiled Jan 5 2005
$ xfdesktop -V
This is xfdesktop version 4.1.99.3 for Xfce 4.1.99.2
built with GTK+-2.4.14, linked with GTK+-2.4.14.
Just tried the solution suggested in this bug:
http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610
But this:
# torsmo -w `xprop -root XFCE_DESKTOP_WINDOW | sed
's/.*# \(.*\)/\1/g'`
doesn't help, torsmo still flashes, and disappears as
it updates.

After upgrading:
It's not that bad for now as I updated to torsmo-0.18-r2.
I mean it displays much better now, so it doesn't
disappears as every reload. But if I move some window
over it, the characters and even the information are
broken until I cover that whole area with some window
and quickly uncover.
It never happened with xfce 4.06 and torsmo 0.17-*
