Anyone else with konqueror/Opera scrolling problems?

2002-05-04 Thread Steve Cooper
Hi,

I'm pretty up to date on Unstable, and believe I have the latest qt
library stuff.  Interestingly both Konqueror and Opera exhibit the
same problem.  Even more interestingly Opera exhibits the problem with
both the statically linked and dynamically linked qt versions.  This
makes it real confusing to me.

Both browsers will run fine for a while.  At some point they get into
a mode where scrolling exposes black regions rather than the
newly-exposed rendered content.  I've found no way to get out of that
mode, other than rebooting the sick browser.  Selecting with the mouse
and auto-scrolling will force the black-out regions to render.  But
that's more of an interesting fact than a useful solution.  It's
easier to use a different browser.

Google web and group searches found a few other people experiencing
this.  The only fix mentioned was to change QT versions.  I don't
believe that the statically-linked Opera uses the same QT version as
Debian Unstable.  Also I would expect other Debian Unstable users to
be experiencing this.  Are they?

I'd like to make Opera usable, since I actually paid for it.  I
reported a defect to Opera, but they don't seem responsive.

TIA for any hints.

Cheers,
Steve

I'm not, but I don't use Opera and only occasionally use konq.
Perhaps your problems are video-driver-related.  Do you use nvidia's
proprietary drivers?

Probably not your problem, but I have noticed this behavior using the mosfet 
liquid theme (0.9.4) in KDE 3.0 (using Sid).  Is there a possibility that it 
is related to a particular theme that you use?

all the best,
