[10.5x - Unix] sluggish/jerky scrolling and resizing
With the new 10.5x series, which I'm testing for a while are rather quite jerky / sluggish when scrolling pages or resizing opera window.Also some artifacts are occuring when scrolling with mousewheel a bit faster or resizing window. Switching tabs or opening a new one causes the page to slowly redraw from top to bottom.
Using BackingStore as suggested didn't improve anything.
I understand it's under development but I'm reporting this in hope that will not be like this in final.
Other browsers, including opera 10.10 are fast and snappy.
Version
10.52 Internal
Build
6302
Platform
Linux
Opensuse 11.2, geforce 7600gt with nvidia drivers.
Anyone else with similar experience?

I reported the resizing issue as: DSK-291404 and the scrolling issue as DSK-291374; These issues are graphic card/driver independent.

Not to my knowledge but I didn't really feel like trying, the rest of my system runs nicely
I use Debian and had no such problems. I have nvidia quadro nvs 135m on my laptop, nvidia 8200 at home and nvidia 210 at work. Nvidia drivers from the site. Works well.
When resizing/moving spikes the CPU a bit and sometimes when making the window bigger the extra size is filled with garbage for a split second but then it renders it well. Scrolling is really fast.
Anyway, i use it in full screen usually.
About the backingstore thing: i messed around with it a while back and hardlocked my system couple of times...

the scrolling issue as DSK-291374 seems solved with today's build but although less looking like garbage (now I see clear content of the background(window)) is still not solved

But it scrolls slower - e.g. if I rapidly move mouse wheel - it seems like opera misses some ticks - it's really painfull.
To me this description would sound like smooth scrolling was off because that's how it appears to me when it's off...

After testing a bit - when opera it's jerky on a page - no matter if you do use smooth scrolling or not - scrolling will slow down and some wheel turns will not be registered :/
