I'm still having this problem with all software based X servers. This is e.g. Xnewt on SunRay 1g (ubuntu 8.04.1 64-bit up to the latest version except for the kernel). Also the framebuffer X server on the PS3, this is ubuntu 8.10 ppc64 latest version.
On my desktop PC, with the nvidia card, that's an ubuntu 8.04.1 (latest updates), the problem went away, probably because I upgraded the nvidia drivers to the beta 180.16. If nitpicking, you can still notice it a very tiny bit. but as there is re-rendering done (with those div css styles), it's probably ok, one would expect it to be little slower - but really, almost unnoticable. It's probably the same problem as here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/125970, were they also state that the newest nvidia drivers solve the problem. I've read somewhere that it might have to do with the cairo backend that uses a feature that's not implemented correctly (or badly in the case of nvidia drivers). Note that on windows and MacOS X, firefox always ran smoothly. -- slashdot comment options bar slows down scrolling https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/242562 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
