Bug Description

Since the installation of Kubuntu Jaunty Beta, Konqueror has a very bad scrolling behaviour which is nearly unusable. It is not smooth in any way, but very jerky, especially when using the mouse wheel, but also with arrow keys.
I renamed my (old) konqueror settings in .kde (both config and apps), but the problem still occurs.
None of the options for "Smooth scrolling" has an remarkable effect.
Kwin effects have no influence either and other browsers like Opera and Firefox do well.

I have Intel graphics (Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)).

I found a workaround:

install webkitkde, (re)start konqueror and choose "View → View Mode → WebKit.

With WebKit Konqueror is usable again for me.

Behaviour has improved with latest updates, still not perfect but usable at least.
