Yes, I see lots of trouble in Mozilla rendering using the NV driver on SOME of my computer systems. I see broken up letters and blotchy crap all over the place. I believe you don't see it in all Gnome applicatsions because they use different font servers than mozilla (guess). There is no trouble on the laptop with GO5200FX or the desktop with NVIDIA 5200FX or 5600FX or such. But there is big trouble with the Nvidia Quadro. It is solved if you switch over to the Nvidia commercial X driver. There are some long-standing bugs with the NV driver and I generally don't run it, except that the new kernel/nvidia driver combination causes random lockups while using mouse (discussed in nvidia forum, not a hugely widespread problem, but big for some kernels and cards) pj On 9/5/06, Mostafa Afgani <m.afgani.fedora@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Dear all, Is there anyone else noticing some redraw/refresh problems with mozilla firefox/thunderbird and the XOrg 'nv' driver? Basically, the cursor leaves a trail wherever is passes through. It is not possible to include a screenshot since the trails disappear the moment I hit 'PintScr'. Here's a photo using a camera: http://img246.imageshack.us/my.php?image=trailscr4.jpg These trails do not appear anywhere else(gedit, gnome-terminal, kate). They are also absent from the mozilla products if 'vesa' is used instead. I have tried disabling Pango but that did not help. I suppose a bug report against xorg-x11-drv-nv is in order?
