It is unlikely your case, but I've had similar issues with firefox on my laptop 
with intel video under 7.2-PRERELEASE.

Setting video driver option AccelMethod to old XAA mode in xorg.conf helped a 
lot.






It is NOT the way I try Acceleration or not or what driver the box uses, 
this happens with VESA, Radeon, RadeonHD as well. VESA worked before.
This is only on FreeBSD 8.0/amd64 with local displays. starting firefox3 
remotely, this problem does not occur. I guess due to a lot of updates 
in xorg-port there is again an issue. The never ending story with X11 
and wicked updates.

 * Are you running hald?

hald is not running by default.
 * Do you have AllowEmptyInput set in /etc/X11/xorg.conf?

It is explicitely set OFF/NO.
 * Are you starting xdm, kdm, or gdm from /etc/ttys?

Yes, xdm is started via /etc/ttys.

Re: firefox3 with high latencies when acting with mouse or keyboard and graphics refresh

2009-04-09 Thread Sergio de Almeida Lenzi
Hello,

try to login on xdm using secure or xterm option 

if not possible, shutdown xdm (in etc/ttys)
make sure X is not running
and at the console (vga) 
type xinit
it will start a small window with noting but xterm
start a window manager (twm)
in the window, type firefox... and see if it works ok...

In the xterm window you will see firefox messages...
look for something like fam

if it is the case, than you must start firefox within
a more sofisticated DM (gdm, kdm...) 

if firefox works ok, so the problem is in the setup of
the dm (xdm, gdm...) (I prefer gdm, version 1.8)

if firefox does not work ok, the problem is with the X
configureation, or firefox itsself,

Try test with firefox2 

Hope this will help,
Sergio
