It is a Firefox issue on Linux (Ubuntu) only. Graphics handling on my Ubuntu 8.04 machine works great, a few examples:
1) Google Earth 4.2 render smoothly - even with sunsets over 3D-textured houses in Munich (Germany). 2) Opera renders the examples given above fluently. 3) Firefox running virtualized in Windows on VMWare on Ubuntu renders the demo-pages fluently. 4) Compiz effects - full bells'n'whistles - renders fluently. To conclude: This issue can not be solved by adding a module section to xorg.conf. The culprit is Firefox on Linux (maybe just Ubuntu, cf. 1st comment in this issue). -- slow scroll with image as background-repeat https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/125970 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
