General :: In Firefox Images Appear To Be Grainy
Feb 23, 2010
images in firefox appear to be grainy when being displayed along with text. for example the linuxquestions.org icon on the top left corner of this very page is very grainy ( low quality ... jerky ... un-antialiased dunno how else to explain it) and the same image when opened in a separate tab ( only the image) appears to have changed its quality .. very lean and clear.
Note: this happens only on linux and in every distribution I came across including mandriva, opensuse, slackware, sidux etc.
Specifications: Dell Studio 1450 laptop with 4 gigs of RAM and 500 gigs of HDD ATI Mobility Radeon 4530 ... driver installed.

I've noticed that after an update, possibly a week ago, that Firefox 3.6.15 images are grainy. If you look at the attached image, you'll see that the banner is grainy and jagged. The fonts appear on this news site to be okay although frequently the fonts are messed up as well. Don't mind the personal bookmarks toolbar, I smudged it on purpose. BTW, the same page in Chromium looks as it should.

Just installed it on my laptop.Videos are appearing grainy (like boxes)-no sharp images.Should I be considering some video codecs? I am using VLC Player and PS3 Media Server (dlna server)

I know that ImageMagick's convert program can be used as follows to convert a collection of images -- say, in PNG format -- to a PDF file:
convert *png output.pdf
The problem with this is that each image is then stretched to fit on one page, whereas I would like to keep the original dimensions of the images and put as many as possible on one page in the PDF file before moving on to another page.

I am just spent half an hour hunting for a thing that should be totally available already:USB install images of Ubuntu, knoppix and all the others.And, the only good way are so far complicated tutorials where you extract the stuff from an CD image. Why??Hasn't everybody notices that CDs/DVDs are vanishing big time? That more and more systems don't have the readers anymore? Instead of following a 10 point instruction list, it would be nice to just be able to download a Ubuntu 8.10 or whatever USB image and be able to beam that DIRECTLY to a USB stick with a dd command.
Or am a missing something here? Does this exist?It should by no means be mariginal, considering how important USB stick in specific and flash memory in general have become.

When I use google images, or I look at images for changing my desktop background, the images become heavily distorted. Here is a screenshot

in Firefox, all the pictures I view online are pretty blurry and pixalated. Even things like the google name on google.com. This does not happen in chrome, so it is not from my internet or my computer.

I am running Ubuntu 10.04, up to date, 32 bits. I tried to open a huge (10.000 x 1.200 pixels approx) Wikipedia image, and everything crashed. Nor Firefox, Gnome or anything else responded from there. Not even ctrl+alt+del, ctrl+alt+backspace, alt+F2, etc. Only the mouse moves, but rather slowly.
This is the image:

I could NOT replicate the problem with Chromium. However, I am not sure if the issue is only firefox since it locks up everything in ubuntu.

OPENSUSE 11.2 KDE - I love this distro , but a minor problem .......i am using firefox 3.6 version ,firefox doesn't show save window when i right click on a wallpaper or image and then I click save image button, so i have to do "CTRL+S" to save an image.this was an issue with the version 3.5.7 too.i thought upgrading from YaST would solve the problem , but it didn't.GOOGLE CHROME UNSTABLE, KONQUEROR & EPIPHANY BROWSERS DON'T HAVE THIS ISSUE..........

There is a problem with the Linux version of Firefox that images pixelate badly when zoomed. This does not happen in the Windows version of Firefox. Ubuntu has a fix for this that works really well (I have used installed it in Ubuntu in the past). Here is the link to Ubuntu's fix: [URL]
There must be some way to fix this is openSUSE.

I can't find a package of Firefox in OBS which is compiled with smooth scaling of images option turned on (as is the case in Windows version where this option is turned on by default). Could someone provide me a link from where I can get this package.

If i want to upload an image to a website, the file browser for firefox comes up. When I'm uploading images I like to see big thumbnails as a scroll through but I can only see file names and one thumbnail at a time.

I turned on the computer this morning as usual, went into firefox, and some of the pages in the tabs look a bit strange, but i reckon they're just loading slow.Then I went into one of my sites that has images of some other sites that I designed. The images all seem to be there, so on. So I click through to one of the sites and... no images. Odd. Tried clicking where the image should be "View image" and it says firefox can't find it. Checked in ftp, the images are there and viewable.
Installed chrome and the site is perfect. Images showing up and everything.Still the same after a reboot.It makes cpanel really hard to use. Lots of sites including Facebook are just rubbish to look at (not just mine), seems the stylesheets may not be loading either in some cases. However, Ubuntu Forums is normal. In fact the whole thing is apparently completely randomAll is fine in Chrome.Is this a buggy version of firefox installed in the the latest update?

I upgraded to Natty, some images appear in negative colours in Firefox, but not all. For example, photos on Facebook have negative colours, but not the thumbnail versions of the profile pictures do not. I have tried reinstalling Firefox in Synaptic to no avail. On another partition I have an installation of openSUSE 11.4 sharing the same /home (and therefore all Firefox settings etc), but no negative colours.

I have a weird problem with Firefox with the following scenario: When I view a picture from a website in the browser and the pictures gets deleted from the server (while I'm viewing it) - I can't save the picture to my hard drive. Firefox always tries to download the picture from the web-server although it's in the cache. Resulting in an image file which contains the HTTP 404 response from the server. *lol*

sporadically and sometimes, right click image > save image as does not work, ie no response. If I close FF and restart, more often than not it does (same target image, natch) Anyone else have any experience here? I have tried the "advanced options" in java script under edit> prefs, but the problem persists. Would there be any point in starting from CLi and looking at/posting the output?

I recently upgraded from 10.04 to 11.04, and when I did so images started displaying improperly in Firefox. This is an issue that is isolated to Firefox, and does not occur in Chrome, and really only occurs on Facebook. The images look as though they were taken under a blacklight. I don't know what the issue is, as I was running Firefox 4 under 10.04, and the issue did not occur then.

I have a problem where the resolution during bootup, shutdown, switching users, and the theme icons look very grainy & cheap. It might have started when I booted in failsafe graphics mode and after that, it never went away. Could be wrong about how it happened but is there a way to get out of failsafe mode? Or a way to reconfigure default, normal graphics?

I am running Linux from a DVD, not installed. I am not good with installing software, but since the DVD cannot be corrupted, I am content to operate this way. Lately, I have been having problems that previously did not occur. When I try to click on the checkbox to get rid of emails, it doesn't register in most cases, or when it does, I am clicking multiple times so it registers twice, meaning it is unchecked again. Even more frustrating is some issues that are affecting my ability to update my business. I am trying to modify spreadsheets (text not calculations).
Whenever I try to click & drag to select something to change, it keeps jumping around to select only some of what I want, something else or some combination of the 2. When I try to copy and paste several fields from 1 column to another, everything from the several fields in the source column ends up together in the last field in the target column. I am also trying to download some images from a website. There is a single column of links to the images. I have to click on the link to get to the image in order to copy it, then back out to continue looking for more links to do the same.
My computer keeps jumping back 2 steps, then forward 2 steps, and sometimes I lose my place in that list. I could deal with it if it were a small number of links, but this is a list of probably close to 20,000 links. Again, i am operating off of a live DVD so this should not be corruptible, but this has just started happening, and has been an issue the last several sessions.

I'm doing this wget script called wget-images, which should download images from a website. It looks like this now:
wget -e robots=off -r -l1 --no-parent -A.jpg
The thing is, in the terminal when i put ./wget-images www.randomwebsite.com, it says
wget: missing URL
I know it works if I put url in the text file and then run it, but how can I make it work without adding any urls into the text file? I want to put link in the command line and make it understand that I want pictures of that certain link that I just wrote as a parameter.

I have a large number of paper sheets to scan. Instead of an autofeed or flatbed scanner, I'd like to use my photo camera. After a while, it occurred to me that instead of making a photo for each page, I could install the camera on a tripod, set it to record video and then extract the images from the video.
That way, I'd just have to handle the papers: Pick one, place it in front of the camera, wait a moment, replace it. Is there a Linux software to get all images without motion out of a movie? Kind of a non-motion-detection.

I don't know if I only need the 3 ISO images that're last in the list and which is the installer.

Binary-2.iso
DVD-1.iso
Would you know of a free Windows-based disc burning software that allows the disk to be left after use, i.e. allows writing on it again.
