Could someone help me to resolve display issue that I see in openSUSE 11.1

I used Firefox 3.0.4 but I see the same issue in Opera. What I see is everything looks normal in Firefox when you get to any web page. Example below is a Russian site, but you see the same issue on any page. When you try to zoom in on the page everything readjust the size (pictures, fonts),but picture degrades in quality so it is unpleasant to see. Here is an example of a normal page without zoom. It looks normal:

Most of the time you can adjust View in FireFox by Zooming in/out (Ctrl ++/ Ctrl -- )

See the same page after 2nd zoom:

Picture quality is degrades.

See the same page after 4th zoom:

Picture quality is degrades.

See the same pate after 6th zoom:

As you can see there is no issue with fonts. When you zoom in fonts adjust and look normal, but picture quality degrades with each zoom.

It is a dual-boot PC with Vista and openSUSE 11/1. I have Nvidia Video Card GeForce 7900GS with Nvidia Linux driver.

The interesting part that I don't see a problem on Vista (the same hardware, the same PC). Firefox zooms in font and pictures and scales just fine. (no picture quality degradation)

I'd like to find a solution for this zoom/scale issue. I'd like to use openSUSE,but this thing just drives me nuts and I keep switching back to Vista that I dislike, but has good FireFox zoom in feature.

P.S.

I'm duplicating this on SLES-11-RC1
