2007-05-03 10:56:19 PrivateUser132781 description Binary package hint: firefox When editing a text field in a web application, e.g. this window on launchpad or a message in gmail and one moves the cursor with the keyboard, a cursor is drawn between every character and only disappears after several seconds. This does not happen in firefox on windows or on my Powerbook running Dapper PPC. I'm not sure whether this is a firefox problem or Xorg's graphics rendering. This machine has an on-board video adapter and I don't think hardware acceleration supported by Linux on this adapter (although I'm not sure how to check). Device Manager says: Vendor: nVidia Corporation Product: Unknown (0x0163) If you'd like to see what I mean by the artifacts, check this screenshot: http://maanskyn.za.net/firefox.png Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-driver-nv When editing a text field in a web application, e.g. this window on launchpad or a message in gmail and one moves the cursor with the keyboard, a cursor is drawn between every character and only disappears after several seconds.

2007-05-03 11:00:05 PrivateUser132781 firefox: statusexplanation This bug does not seem to be a firefox problem, but rather to affect all GTK applications, and only when the open nvidia driver (xserver-xorg-driver-nv) is used.

Upstream they say this is fixed as of xserver-xorg-video-nv 2.0.0, which is available for feisty stable.
