Fedora :: Scrolling Causes Striping Screen Glitches In Firefox?

Dec 29, 2009

I had to disable "smooth scrolling"

Edit > Preferences > Advanced > General > Smooth Scrolling

I'm using LXDE on a HP510 Laptop, it's onboard graphics chipset is a: Intel Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller. I am not using an xorg.conf file, so the settings are just the default autodetect ones I assume. I've noticed it when scrolling in firefox, and can't seem to get it to do it when scrolling in other applications, but I haven't really used this laptop much since installing the Fedora 12 LXDE spin recently. I'm not sure what information to supply that will help you help me. Here is a screenshot to show what happens.

I dunno what the big black box is, its only visible on the screenshot. I had to bind a script to printscreen to get it to make a screenshot, so its probably something I need to do here to get rid of it?

Code:

#!/bin/bash
DATE=`date +%Y-%m-%d %H-%M`
import -window root "$HOME/Desktop/screenshot $DATE.png"

I also can't get the touchpad scrolling to work. Or my external monitor without some issues. So I think I will be making an xorg.conf file at some point.

General :: LVM Striping On Top Of Raid5 Striping

Oct 6, 2010

From my recent research I have learned what striping means and that both RAID and LVM are capable of striping.To begin, I started with two identical RH9 servers that I can only access remotely.Identical in *every* way so please take that literally (excluding network address). One is the active server and the 2nd is a backup server.They use RAID 5 and all the partitions are ext3(/ext2) except for the LVM data partition (and one other small LVM partition that has no obvious purpose to me).

My goal is to convert these servers to Cento 5.x so the backup server is my target for the first conversion to Centos. Afterwards (when I have a seemingly reliable strategy worked out) I will deploy this backup server as the new live server and then duplicate the conversion process on the old live server to create an identical backup server.Maybe not the best plan of attack, but the one we have chosen and already commited to so far.In the process of installing Centos from CDs, we selected the custom installation.The idea here was, simply reformat the existing partitions as provided by Centos during the installation in hopes that we would not disrupt the existing LVM partition(s).That didn't work out as planned.Centos complained it could not reformat the LVMs so we selected options to delete and recreate them. That all seemed to work out fine according to fdisk and df results -- the resulting partitioning scheme remained comparable.Then I used 'lvmdiskscan' and got quite a different picture.Here my main concern is that we stared out with 'lvmdiskscan' showing "1 disk" and ended up after the Centos install showing "4 disks". If I interpret that correctly, it sounds like LVM was not striping in RH9 and after the Centos install, striping was added to LVM.That, on top of the inherent striping performed by RAID 5, means I have LVM striping on top of RAID striping.Is that possible, or is this (hopefully) a result of a more sophisticated 'lvmdiskscan' command simply informing me that this partition is being striped?

Slackware :: Graphical Glitches In Firefox - How To Fix It

Aug 3, 2010

I'm using FF 3.6.8 on a stock slackware 13.1 system running KDE on an eee pc 1000H. When scrolling up and down in web pages I'm seeing corrupted graphics. It's as if about 20 or so rows of pixels are missed out in the rendering or sometimes as if 20 or so rows of pixels are repeated.Firefox is still quite usable but it is quite annoying.Also, konqueror and sea monkey are fine - no other applications are affected.

I have 600GB striping disks with 3 ntfs partitions, 2 ext4 partitions and 1 swap partion containing ubundu 9.10 and 120 GB free space.

Not enough free space on disks, no matter how small the partitions I try to create. I created logical partitions.

Fedora :: Screen Tearing While Scrolling And Watching Videos?

Apr 18, 2011

"screen tearing" whenever I scroll, watch flash videos, or any videos in general. I first noticed this in Fedora 14, and now I notice the same behaviour in Linux Mint.Does anyone know what might be causing this? My Graphics Card is: Nvidia Geforce GTX 280M (1GB) I'm using Nvidia proprietary drivers. Reading some forums I see that the problem might be related to Compiz. Here's my xorg.conf file (if needed);

Code:

Section "Screen"
Identifier"Default Screen"

Ubuntu :: 11.04: Screen Glitches After Closing And Opening Laptop?

May 8, 2011

since I've upgraded to 11.04 on my Dell Latitude E6400, every time I close the lid and open it again, Ubuntu fires up but the screen itself is totally messed up, it's just random patterns all over the screen. The laptop is locked, so I can type in my password, hit enter, and once I'm logged in again the screen is perfectly fine, so the system itself works, only the display is the problem

Hardware :: Unable To See Everything On Screen Without Scrolling Over Then Screen Pulls Back

Jul 7, 2011

I'm trying to fix this screen problem I continue to have (an example: in Evolution, its like my screen is too small to see everything, I have to scroll over down or over, then the window moves over and pulls me back to original spot. I've tried to change the screen resolution and that actually makes things worse. The screen problem is very irritating and I don't know why its happening. I've been using Ubuntu or Mint for years and have never had this problem.

Also, a similar problem but nowhere near as annoying: the sides of either side of screen are black. I can't get the monitor to be completely filled. I went to Intel's website and they have a few drivers compatible for linux (at least that is what they are saying).

I'm using Ubuntu lts 10.04 lucid lynx
2.6.32-32-generic

OpenSUSE :: Firefox Has Choppy Scrolling

I installed the newest (11.2?) KDE opensuse last night on my computer. Last night everything was fine but while I slept I guess the Linux Gremlins got to my laptop. Now when I scroll down in Firefox the motion is slow and choppy. Has this happened to anyone else? If so what can I do to fix it?

OpenSUSE :: Firefox Scrolling Out Of Control?

Nov 3, 2010

Using Firefox 3.6.10 on openSUSE 11.3 with kde desktop on T42 I am finding that I lose control of the scrolling function form time to time. The result is that if I click on the down arrow to go down from the top of a page, the window will scroll down to the bottom of page without stopping, even if I take pointer off the arrow.The reverse is also true if I am trying to go up from the bottom of a page. Great for very fast reader but not for me. Is this a problem anybody else has seen? For me it is new to 11.3 but there have been so many Firefox upgrades since I ran 11.2 I cannot determine precisely when it started

Ubuntu :: Firefox Key Scrolling Broken?

Mar 25, 2011

When I browse the Internet using Firefox, I often use the keyboard to scroll because it is quicker than using the mouse. Page-Up and Page-Down are useful; Home and End are especially useful to let me move instantly to the top or bottom of a long page.

However, for the past few days, these keys have not worked correctly.

When I press those keys, either nothing happens or the screen briefly flashes but stays where it is. On some pages, they also create a large vertical black bar that slowly flashes on the page.

I have started Firefox in Safe Mode and it does the same thing (see the screen-shot). So, it's not an add-on creating the problem.

Interestingly, the keys still work properly in Chromium.

How I can fix this Firefox problem?

My system:
Ubuntu Lucid 10.04, 64-bit, with all updates
Firefox 3.6.16

Ubuntu :: Scrolling Using Arrow Keys In Firefox?

When using firefox, if I use my arrow keys in the keyboard to scroll through the Window, it works only if the mouse pointer is inside the window. Otherwise, the scroll doesn't work. Is there any way to solve this problem?

It's not just the arrow keys, even the TouchPad scroll on my laptop also.

Ubuntu :: FireFox Mouse Wheel Scrolling Up?

May 15, 2010

I just finished installing 10.04. When I use the mouse wheel to scroll up, Firefox loads previous pages in my history. I had the same problem in 9.10. I've searched through the net looking for solutions. Most solutions talk about adjusting mousewheel.withnokey options. However, everything I try doesn't stop it from loading previous pages when using the mouse wheel to scroll up. My current settings are as follows:

mousewheel.withnokey.action = 0
mousewheel.withnokey.numlines = 6
mousewheel.withnokey.sysnumlines = true

Using the mouse wheel to scroll down works fine. It's only when scrolling up. Has anyone else experienced this problem. I'm using a Microsoft Optical Intellimouse

Ubuntu :: Firefox Hesitates Scrolling And When Typing?

Feb 22, 2011

Has anyone else had a problem with Firefox hesitating when scrolling web pages or with words taking a minute to show up while you are typing? I can be halfway through a sentence before the letters actually show up. And when scrolling down a page, it will just stop and then pick back up a few seconds later - but not where it left it. It picks back up as if it had been scrolling the whole time.I am running Ubuntu 10.04 with Firefox 3.6.13 and it does this on two desktops and two laptops.

OpenSUSE :: Firefox Drop-down Menus Vanish When Scrolling Onto Them?

Aug 7, 2011

This is a problem I had in Ubuntu some years ago that just seemed to go away; sporadically I will want to select a website by positioning the cursor over the drop-down arrow to the right side of the url box- after the list is displayed it will vanish immediately when I attempt to position the cursor over it to make a selection. Minimizing then maximizing Firefox resolves it.

A minor problem yes - but it would be nice to not have to deal with it.

Fedora :: Glitches In GTK After Upgrading From F13 To F14?

Nov 20, 2010

yesterday I've decided to upgrade my distro from F13 to F14 using preupgrade. There were no errors during installation, but after first boot I've noticed glitches in GTK widgets in GDM and other windows after logon (strange white strips on buttons, progress bars and more). Moreover there were even worse glitches in gnome-do. I've attached two screenshots to show exactly what I [URL] I think this is a problem directly connected with upgrading the distro as there are no mentioned glitches when running standard live version of Fedora 14.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Firefox Smooth Scrolling And Video Flickers?

May 27, 2010

I'm using the Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Desktop 64-bit distribution. Hardware is the Dell Vostro 1015; laptop with Intel (g)45 express chipset with Intel x4500MHD graphics accelerator. Celeron 900 2.2ghz single core, 1GB RAM.

The issue is I have smooth scrolling enabled in Firefox. And whenever I scroll the page, it's very choppy/laggish/not smooth at all. When I go on ..... to watch a video, any slight scrolling will cause it to flicker like crazy. The effect reminds me of when I run Windows without installing drivers for the video card.

Now I wanted to make sure it wasn't a hardware issue, so I installed Windows7 and did the exact same thing. Everything runs smoothly, I can smooth scroll no problem, and video playbacks without any flickers whatsoever. It is a lower end laptop, which is basically for the occasional ..... and web browsing.

I will try the 32 bit edition in the meantime to see if it helps. I was under the impression that 32bit limits your maximum ram to just under 4GB. (I planned to upgrade the laptop a bit)

I Have installed openSUSE 11.3 using VMWare and liked it so I thought I would install as my main OS. So I downloaded the latest livecd Gnome and created a usb install using imagewriter with suse.

Ubuntu Installation :: Update From ISO Hangs With Scrolling Dots On Screen

Apr 30, 2010

I burned and checked the image, but cannot install or upgrade ( I DL both the full and alternate image) Hangs on the Ubuntu screen with the scrolling dots. After this, I tried mounting and running the install from the iso, but since all the files are either .inf or unknown, I don't know how. Next, I tried a trick from the ubuntu site using alt+F2 to run from the iso, and it seemed to work, but now it still tries to DL the updates from the internet instead of just getting them from the ISO. This also happens now if I try to upgrade from the update manager, it keeps asking for the install disk. Is there any way to just use the ISO as though it were a disk? I have been running 9.10 for months with no problems.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Screen Scrolling/rolling When Resolution Is 1920x1080?

Mar 5, 2011

I recently bought a 37" Vizio M370NV HDTV and connected it to my Kubuntu 10.10 desktop.Currently my resolution is 1280x1024, so there is black bars on the side of my screen. I want my resolution to be 1920x1080, which is what the TV/monitor says is it's primary resolution. However, when I set that resolution in nvidia-settings, my screen scrolls up. By that I mean that my screen keeps moving up my monitor and appearing at the bottom.

Fedora :: Firefox Doesn't Open Full Screen?

Sep 7, 2009

I've had this happen so often in the past, that I'm ready to ditch firefox altogether. I'm running F10 on a 3Ghz Intel dual core processor with a 500gb hdd. l prefer that my browser start up with a full screen when I launch it and firefox has been doing this just fine for the past 8 months. When I fired up firefox (version 3.0.13) this morning, it started up using only half the screen. As I've mentioned this has happened to me in the past and I've never been able to figure out how to get FF back to starting with a full screen. Does anyone know how to make it default back to opening in full screen mode? I've attached an image of how FF is opening now.
