I've noticed that when I am scrolling up/down a page in Firefox, or scrolling up/down an email body in Thunderbird, it's not seamless. Not sure how to best describe what I mean by 'not seamless'. It's kind of wavy. The text is.
Is this kind of behaviour a result of something missing in the kernel I'm using, or in the graphics driver, or something else. Here's some details about my system setup. box0=; uname -a Linux box0 3.10.7-gentoo #4 SMP Mon Sep 9 21:53:26 EEST 2013 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU T3400 @ 2.16GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux box0 ~ # lspci|grep VGA 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G98M [GeForce G 103M] (rev a1) box0=; equery list x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers * Searching for nvidia-drivers in x11-drivers ...
