Bug Description
Binary package hint: abiword
Reproduce:
(Use a 2.6 series package on Hardy)
Scroll up or down very quickly using a scroll wheel or something emulating it.
Observe: The scroll bar moves/up down quickly but returns to the original position. This does not happen if you scroll at a slower (normal) speed.
Suspicion: Since this does not happen on Fedora with a matching AbiWord build, and no package source patch touches anything like this in the code, I am suspecting something higher in the stack than AbiWord, but reporting it for completeness. Also I heard that Firefox on Hardy occassionally has the same problem, strengthening my suspicion. In any case, this bug has been filed upstream (but not confirmed as an upstream problem) http://

I see a variation of this when I scroll with the right side of my touchpad: When scrolling fast the scrollbar jitters or jerks back and forth but moves in the general direction.
I have 2.6.2-0ubuntu0~ ppa12, no compiz, nvidia driver.
