Ubuntu :: Slow/Erratic Scrolling In Chromium?

Apr 23, 2010

I just upgraded from 8.04 to the lucid beta (yes I was slow to move on that), and chromium's scrolling is HORRID! It jumps and skips both when I use the mouse wheel or when I drag the scroll bar.

Any ideas? Firefox scrolls just fine. It makes using chromium very unpleasant because any time I have to scroll I feel like I'm back in 1992.

I did some searching and found lots of complaints, so I thought I was close to an answer until I looked at the date, it was late 2008/early 2009 when this was an issue.

Ubuntu :: Graphical Operations (Scrolling / Moving) Slow

Jan 31, 2011

On one Ubuntu desktop 10.04 I got an ati 4800 series using the proprietary drivers. All was working well until a reboot a couple of days ago. I am not sure if it had something to do with one of the massive updates I installed on that day. After that, operations like scrolling, moving windows etc have been dramatically slow. I tried to boot from live cd with 10.04 and everything seemed ok.

Debian Multimedia :: No 3d Acceleration Intel 945 + Slow Scrolling Web Pages?

Mar 9, 2011

Running Squeeze, with kernel 2.6.32-5-amd64. I do not find out how to enable 3d acceleration with my Intel 945 embedded graphics card. Also having very (i mean VERY) slow scrolling in some webpages (such as apple website, or danielestulin.com website). I tested the following "Hardware Acceleration Stress Test" with Epiphany, Iceweasel and Firefox, and the best rate I get is only 3 fps...[URL].. I tested the Chess game included with default Squeeze install, running in 3d mode, and definetely there is no acceleration at all...

Here's my glxinfo output:
name of display: :0.0
display: :0  screen: 0
direct rendering: Yes

server glx version string: 1.2

Fedora :: Kernel 2.6.35.12-88 - Scrolling The Browser Window Incredibly Slow

Apr 15, 2011

Is anyone else seeing high CPU usage with this new kernel while using Firefox 4? I didn't have this problem before this update. If I boot into the previous kernel there is no problem surfing the web with Firefox 4

This kernel update has made browsing the web very slow and scrolling the browser window incredibly slow to the point of frustration.

Should this be reported as a bug or an issue with the new kernel or has anyone already reported this issue?

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?

Jan 30, 2010

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 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 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)

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.

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.

Ubuntu :: Speeding Up Firefox With A Slow SSD?

May 26, 2010

I have an Acer Aspire One A110 netbook. Presently, it runs Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10 and Firefox 3.5.8. The A110 is an early model with a slow SSD (solid state drive). Firefox was slow and often paused (froze for a moment). I tried several hacks in the Ubuntu forums and elsewhere to speed up Firefox. Some were not effective at all, some were very technical and at least one produced instability. I tried Google Chrome, which started out fast but turned slow. Emptying browser caches did not fix my problems.

I thought the slow disk must be the problem and moved the browser cache to a dedicated SDHC card. I've since been running with a dedicated cache for a month or two now, have never emptied the cache and Firefox still runs fast. I mean fast enough that it doesn't slow down my browsing (I'm not trying to set world speed records).

The A110 has two SD slots. I have a 16 GB SDHC card in the 'Storage Expansion', which is my data disk. The second is a card reader slot. I didn't want to mess with my data disk. I bought a fast (Transcend, Class 6)

4 GB SDHC, put that in the card reader slot and set up my Firefox cache there:

1. Type about:config in the Firefox address bar.

2. Tell Firefox where your new cache is. For me:browser.cache.disk.enable true.

browser.cache.disk.parent_directory /media/BD2C-8BD5/firefox (I created a directory /firefox on the card)

3. Tell Firefox to increase the size of the cache: browser.cache.disk.capacity 512000 (formerly 51200)

4. Check the cache is enabled, type about:cache in the Firefox address bar. For me it returns: /media/BD2C-8BD5/firefox/Cache

To get the name of the cache directory easily and accurately, open this directory with the File Browser, toggle to a text-based location bar and there it is. Cheap SD cards can be purchased on feebay. Select carefully, they're not all fakes. SDHC Class 6 is fine for a browser cache, handling small blocks of data. Cards only slow down when you do a massive file transfer. 2GB or 1GB should be adequate but fast and small cards are rare. Other memory cards can be used of course, but speeds vary between different technologies.

Ubuntu :: 10.4 - Firefox Browser Very Slow

Aug 7, 2010

I was using Freespire but the version of Firefox was old and I read that Freespire was an old and obsolete OS, so I installed Ubuntu 10.4. I like everything about it so far but Firefox browser is very slow. It can take up to 30 seconds sometimes to load a web page. Just surfing the web is difficult. I do have high speed internet service and a router, I have an XP and a Vista system both are fine and even this system when it had Freespire was fine. It just started when I installed Ubuntu.
