Screen tearing when scrolling in Chromium

[Kaspar Tint]

When Chromium is in maximized, very evident screen tearing is seen when scrolling the page.

I recorded the problem on to a video which is located here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/h7egaut8lbx9wzs/Screencast%202015-08-01%2017%3A54%3A48.mp4?dl=0

This should be downloaded because dropbox probably shows the video with worse quality in it's web player.

Notes:
   * The tearing is evident when the window is maximized
   * As seen in the video, when moving the window to the right, the tearing will fade out from the Chromium window
   * This leaves me to belive that the tearing is caused by some other object that is maybe invisible on the desktop otherwise?

Info about the system:

   * Ubuntu 15.04 (64 bit)
   * CPU: Intel i5-3337U

I also attached the video on this page.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time. Your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates.

It would help us a lot if you could test on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running only once in a terminal:

apport-collect 1480568

and add any additional information that you think relevant. Alternatively, please confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the report. If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately two months time.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu better.
