Comment 75 for bug 128803

Sebastian - I think this is very much to do with the users configuration, and not simply down to gnome, as I find that this issue does not exist on my laptop, which was updated on the same day as my computer, and they both have the same updates installed, so it can't simply be gnome, or they would both have it. My laptop tends to be simply for light browsing however, so there aren't many additionally programs installed (to the default configuration).

Below is the specs of both computers as we might be able to put it down to a certain piece of hardware, I am suspicious of wireless, as others have listed this, although it could just as easily be a graphics issue, it would be helpful if people could list there hardware here so we can compare and try and find out the issue in that way, please include graphics card and processor (I see it as unlikely, that everyone on this forum will have the same motherboard features, so I doubt that will make any difference)

Laptop (unaffected by bug)

Dell Latitude D510 - Intel 1915 graphics card (using the i810 driver) with an intel processor in built intel wireless (ipw2200 driver used)

Computer (effected by bug)

Amd Athlon 3000+ processor Nvidia fx 5500 graphics card (using nvidia's driver) nasty belkin F5D705D (using rt73 cvs 2007100108 driver)

This is, of course, the easy answer, and I doubt that you're all going to reply saying you have the exact same driver for something, but, its always good to try the easy answer's first...
