fix high CPU usage under wxgtk2 #260 

When using GTK2, call DrawArea(dc) instead of GetWindow()->Refresh(),
this prevents glib from using huge amounts of CPU (as discovered by
@retro-wertz .)

Switching video drivers sometimes crashes the app, the DrawArea() call
is as safe as possible, the problem is elsewhere.
