Bug Description
Since switching to the new Cinnamon Desktop in Ununtu 12.04 LTS, I noticed general scrolling is much more difficult in a browser. I recently got a bigger monitor so I switched to Cinnamon since that's the only way I could get the optimum resolution using dual monitors on my ATI HD 5400 series. Maybe it's just the fact that I have an ATI card, on a MSI motherboard.
The resolution worked, but now the graphics are just choppy, especially when scrolling in a browser or watching any video. Looks great when it's not moving.
