Please note that setting "gfx.xrender.enabled" to false cannot be a permanent solution. It makes graphic rendering extremely sluggy over network connections, where X client and server are not on the same machine (and that's what X was designed for).
We deploy firefox in a client/server setup (Linux Terminal Server Project, LTSP), for 800 users. Their firefox display is extremely slow with xrender disabled. Scrolling down a page is a pain. Currently I need to tell mu users: "You can have gray boxes in the address field, or you can have slow scolling. What would you like?" Setting "gfx.xrender.enabled" to false does *not fix* the issue, it just hides it by the cost of losing other features. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1314924 Title: Adressbox Entries unreadable: Grey/Black Mask overlaying text To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1314924/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
