Some little update...

I play a little with source package of xorg-x11-server-Xorg...
It seems that the problem is caused by "Fix backing store's 
Always mode" patch...
It was applied to 1.15.0-32 version :

* Wed Feb 25 2015 Adam Jackson <[log in to unmask]> 1.15.0-32
- Fix backing store's Always mode

When I exclude this patch from spec file and recompile the rpm, 
ferret works well again...

I hesitate to contact Adam Jackson...
